You may have the illusion of free will on here because you apparently have the ability to post whatever you want. But with that being said, one of the posts you've chosen to put up violates forum rules, and then you're banned. Do you still have the choice to come back and post some more, or was your free will an illusion all along? The latter is true, because you can't post anymore. You never had free will in the first place. No matter where we go we are bound by rules. Do we have choices? Sure we do. Are they all consequence free? Hell no. Christianity is not consequence free, so there is no free will in it either.
This has to be the most insane, unreasoned statement I've ever heard.

One of the illusions of free will, is the idea that you could have acted differently. But, you couldn't. Whatever it was that you picked, you would have picked it anyway, no matter how free you think you were to do otherwise, and would not have any idea why you chose what you chose. In fact, the decision would have been made before your conscious self was even aware of it. Did you really not watch the video? You fit the Christian stereotype to the T. Intellectually lazy.
