Considering that you're not giving the slightest consideration to differing opinions, and not attempting to give well-thought-out counterarguments, I'm not even sure why you're engaging in this discussion. What is interesting to you about this debate?

Just exercising my free will.

Not giving my slightest to differing opinions? No well thought out counterarguments? What exactly are you looking for?

To me it's a really simple f*cking concept. You don't agree? Fine. What do you want me to do? Wax poetically for a few paragraphs about how simple a concept it is?

And exactly what is the debate? Are you debating the definition of free will? The concept of free will? The science of free will? The psychology of it? Spell it out for me.
