We can only do what occurs to us, and what occurs to our brains is not in our control. If so, you would somehow think the thoughts before you think them. The universe is unfolding the one and only way it possibly can.

There is no proof that the universe is unfolding in one and only way. In fact, it might be unfolding in zillion different ways from where an observer stands in time. One observer might go along one path and another might go in a different path. Each thinks the history is unique.

Honest question: When was the last time you did something that you honestly thought wasn‘t right when you did it? If you remember sth, did you really think it was wrong? Are you honest with yourself?

Just now when I opened twitter.

There's at least four kinds of "free will" I can think of, on vastly different levels. Futile for us to talk about it without defining it first. Sorry I brought it up :) Twitter's not the medium most suited for it…

"Freewill" is merely our Operating System. When we realize that we're not in control we experience Ego Dissolve.

I don't think this is exactly how it works.

"Man can do what he wills but he cannot will what he wills." I think most people still interpret that as a lack of free will, no? You can maybe view determinism as another form of compulsion, but on a level that we can never even sense.
