@Camus Indeed it is (irrelevant). In the same fashion, a person might claim that they did not "freely will" to murder another..what with not having any, but that doesn't change the fact that we'll need to remove that persons access to other potential victims. You'll hear alot of slippery slope style arguments that, like free will, fail to materialize as claimed in the first place.
@Pool, is there more than one person posting on your account, or do you have some sort of short term memory issue? In any case, we haven't gotten to the point where we wonder which of your statements is sound, there's no need until you come up with a valid form. It could be true, you may really have free will, for example...the argument you've made fails regardless of whether or not you have free will, regardless of whether or not free will is what you say it is, and regardless of whether or not free will exists.
