        @SamHarrisOrg Were you determined to come to this conclusion? If so, could you hold to it rationally? Rationality requires free will.

        @SamHarrisOrg You think you do science (which you don't) but scientific inquiry requires free will, otherwise you'd be executing a program.

        @SamHarrisOrg I was astounded when I discovered so many atheists still believed in free will. I had taken it for granted there was none.
