Right? Is there anything that points to "free will" aside from copium? We obviously make decisions based on the unchangeable past. Anecdotally, I recall coming up with this independently in my youth, and have spoken to others who did the same. The concept isn't difficult. Why is this still discussed?
Not to be too snarky about something we both agree on, but it is an amusing question to ask. Without free will, it's being discussed because it's being discussed
As of now sure, but you could be taught or brought to a point of understanding where you change your understanding
