My brain works based on the laws of physics.
Everything that happens in my head is then deterministic... highly complex, I'll grant you that, but determined by the laws of physics... even if we may have missed some of them.
My brain sends electrical impulses which cause my body to move and type these things on this forum.

Do you have any reason or evidence that states that the brain works non-deterministically?

A rock falls on your head - the impact re-aranges your brain's chemistry. That's a crude example, but external influences change your brain's chemistry all the time.
The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
