It's rhetorical. Word salad is the point.
Freewill is simply a semantic game perpetuated by the religious in an (incoherent) effort to transcend human action from the mundane causes and effects of the universe. Human actions are therefore "special".It's woo.
You are projecting a lot of ideas and attitudes that don't have. I can't argue against what you want me to be thinking.
