By Free Will I mean the ability to willfully choose to "Do otherwise" at any given precise moment. So I am able, for example, at this exact moment to choose what I am doing, at that exact moment ( as that exact moment has now already passed).
Whether determined or undetermined the moments be, can we willfully control them when they are already happening? (I say not because I don't see how that's possible by definition. What is happening is happening whether it's determined or not. What will happen will happen whether determined to happen or not. What has happened has already happened, so no free choice there either).
