Do you think there is freewill or not, and if so, from where do you think it arises?
I think I feel like I make decisions and affect change in myself,
despite the growing wealth of evidence that suggests that is not true,
but it doesn't matter whether or not we have free will,
because humans aren't well served to abandon the notion of personal responsibility.
Put another way:
I think that if humans have free will, i.e. personal agency, it is not what we think it is in our everyday lives,
but that I will have a lot of bad days if I act like I am not responsible for my actions.
