Libertarian free will is not incoherent. It is the best description of what we experience and the only reasoning to deny it is to salvage scientism. Those that espouse scientism do not want any part of allowing for emergent properties that themselves have causal power--it turns their deterministic worldview on its ear.

I do find it funny that people keep having a go at science. Its like they are proud of ignorance. "Lets keep the world stupid, that way lies faith" they seem to say.
Science is how you discover the truth of things and as much as possible getting rid of bias in your observations.
Unfortunately for theists, bias is really all they have.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
