Also, lack of free-will does not negate responsibility. If a rock falls on someone and kills them, the rock is still responsible for their death, even if the rock has no free will. We would not allow other rocks to balance precariously above people's heads, knowing the possible consequences.
Consciousness does not = free-will, but it does equal a responsibility to change for the better when the tools are there to do so.
I hate tarring myself with the same brush, here. :p
Sorry, I replied between your edits.
You have to distinguish between 'responsible' and 'morally responsible'. Just as the rock is not morally responsible for killing someone, neither is a person who is just responding to a very long string of only physical causes.
