What makes you think that we have any freedom over our Will? How is our Will free? The fact we make choices at the spur of the moment is just self-evident. But whether we do that truly freely though, without any outside influences is another matter. Yes we have choices, yes we have a Will. But are our choices free, and is our Will free?

Whether our choices are determined or undetermined, how do we freely exercise control over them without external influence? And, to note:

1. If you believe that you have free will and make free choices, that is in no way evidence that you do.

2. So that means there is a big difference between consciously aware choices, and free consciously aware choices.
