And if those processes are taking place while I am weighing one option over another, clearly I still have the free will to choose.
A process is just that. The process of deciding over one way or another.
Again, you're confusing your experience of what happens, with objective reality. Those are two very different things. You may feel like your weighing one option over the other, but you don't control what you're thinking about when you make the decision. You're not the originator of your thoughts. They just pop up into your awareness and you just go along with them. And the thoughts you think while you're making the decision are the way you decide. So your decision doesn't belong to you, not anymore than your thoughts do. Can you see what I'm saying?
