Turn it around - How can you tell for sure (or wihin a reasonable doubt) that free will is an illusion? Until you can demonstrate your side, one hypothesis is as equally valid as the other. However, I made a point about quantum mechanics a while back which would support free will....
Exactly.
The post I was quoting had much determination, but nothing concrete backing it up.
I was just trying to encourage something deeper than "yes it is" "no it isn't".
