Science

I think that we have free will but it's extremely limited, but we are capable of weighing our emotions and logic to make a choice. I'm always extremely skeptical of people that say we don't have free will, so when they do they better have some really solid evidence. Otherwise what's the point of nature evolving consciousness? Merely to be a passive observer in our predetermined lives? Evolution is effective, if it didnt need it then it wpuldnt have evolved it woth so many animals. Consciousness is there to help us make decisions and map out visions that are beyond the capability of simple automatons.

My bone to pick with this article is that there is no talk about the research that was done to reach the conclusion, so I just have to take this dudes word for it. And I don't feel like reading his book. And based on where we are in science either this is a sensationalized take or this dude is filling in a lot of blanks with his opinions.
