Yup. What illusion? I sense an illusion for those who BELIEVE It....to THEM it seems to be there....

But for me personally there is no sense of it - I sense no illusion.

Doing stuff is not an illusion for CHOOSING to do stuff for me. Not anymore.

Evidence of free will? I know of none. Any reason to believe in it AT ALL? Not as far as I know, nope.

That is how it feels to me. I sense no free will. I sense no illusion. I am simply aware that OTHERS sense it (i.e. - those who believe in free will).
