Believing Thor causes the thunder, or Yahweh made humans out of earth 6000 years ago, are much easier to wrap your head around than the highly complex truth.
You can say that again!
With that, I think free will is more intangible in nature, just like the many things in religion including God as some people believe. (though we are still calling God a psychological need/predisposition here)
That makes me think that free will being intangible, and possibly it not being part of how the mind actually works altogether, is why it does not really exist.
