The theistic claim of "free will" is meaningless.
In real life, in biology, there is both determinism and randomness.
Your brain stem is your deterministic programming . Other parts of your brain regulate delegate work depending on activity stimuli. Nobody has control over the stimuli they receive in that context. You cant control when your eyes are open that light will enter, you can chose to open or close your eyes or wear sun glasses. But your eyes blink and that everyone does and that is evolution the deterministic programming that protects our eyes and keeps them moist. You cant chose to keep your eyes open forever. You can try, but eventually you would damage them, or pass out from lack of sleep.
But even with closed eyes, your brain is processing that position regardless if you are thinking about it or simply going through the motions.
Your brain and brain chemistry is no different than knowing the structure of a hurricane, that part is deterministic. The random part is path or "choice" and amount of rain.
