Hard determinism is a lot like solipsism. The logic seems irrefutable but no one truly believes in it for themselves.
The conclusion may be correct, but the argument from conservation laws isn't. Nature can in principle have a undetermined "choice" between two possiblities which both conserve energy etc.
Indeterminism versus determinism, however, even if such is true at the non-quantum level, how does it lead one to have "free will"?
