In the Hercules mythos, Hercules faced two paths. One lead to virtue, one to vice. Each moment for us humans is such a choice. Free will exists cause each instant we choose to react in a good or a bad manner in some situation.
what neurologists deny is not that choice, its things like where will you seat in a conference room. which has to do with your master eye, and which half of the brain is dominant. how you'll react when you are hungry infront of food. things like that. the limitations of our neurology and physiology. but not our actual choice between good and evil.
I believe concerning the advances of neurology and social science most people no longer believe in total free will at least. Everything we think and do is influenced by historical gain.

I don't understand how atheists can get mad at someone for trying to convert them. Isn't that the exact same thing they do when they argue about politics?
I can't really say anything regarding politics, as I have no interest in it. The political world continuously just depresses me. But, as an agnostic, especially raised within the bible belt. I can say that the majority of religious people consistently try to convert non-believers very rudely. I don't get offended if someone starts preaching the word to me, it is annoying though. Which I usually politely tell them I'm not interested & excuse myself. To which, most of the ones I've said that to react aggressively. By saying I'm doomed & choosing a life of sin & other forms of hate speech.
Well, I have to consistently deal with the fundamentalist christians & it's becoming more difficult every day not to think that behavior is the entire religion's fault. I try not to judge a whole group over a selection of others, because I don't like that being done to groups I'm affiliated with. It's just hard. It's an annoyance I deal with every day.
This is so far most enjoyable mytake i have ever read. Your ideas and opinion on free will seems reasonable, and i agree with it. Regardless of god existence we have free will. Wish it was longer!
We have a limited free will. If God gave us absolute free will, there would be total chaos because there would be no constraints. This is why you can't do anything harmful to others or even to yourself without facing the consequences.

God is right... freedom of choice was given from God to man , so man could choose either God or other.

There is no such thing as God or Free Will, we're products of our environments and we react to our environments.

@KibbityKabbit Those are fundamentalists; they're actually the minority (or more specifically, they're the loud extremists of Christianity).

@KibbityKabbit I can completely sympathize with you. I have the same problem with extremist atheists. It's a prime example of the horseshoe effect.

It's all a philosophy it's impossible to have a factual answer that cannot be refuted when it comes to something like this
You're basically arguing about the superpowers of some grand imaginary friend, you know that, right?
I have experience in all three stages. Let me know if you wanna know the truth.
there are many preachers who don't even read the bible-hence, why most continue to preach about hell and the trinity.
I really enjoyed this a lot.
