Free Will, Decision making and religion

[robvalue]

I don't believe I have "free will" but it's such a slippery term to try and define. I believe I run on nothing but determinism, possibly coupled with quantum randomness. So the only things making a choice, if anything, are random.

With regard to prison and accountability, this is not a problem. If we accept there is no free will, then the punishing agents are also not subject to free will, so their judgement cannot be changed anyhow. It's only an issue where one agent who does have free will has the option to punish or not punish another agent without free will.

Claims of omnipotence as are so often made in religion contradict free will too, including god's own free will. Can't have both without trying to redefine everything ever to get around it.
