@miccee said: If one accepts that humans have free will, then it would be 'irretrievably irrational' to claim that termites do not. Both humans and termites behave in such ways that are dictated by events occurring around them, by the way their brain is 'wired', and by myriad unchosen factors.
Even computers have free will based on the idea that 'free will' = the ability to make choices.

I only consider claims where evidence lies, not out of sheer want and inanity.

What's kookoo-land is somebody believing their every move is pre-fated, yet having angst over what anybody else believes.

Where's the evidence that humans can choose which thoughts to think before thinking them?

And why is it 'free will' when humans make a choice, but not when an insect or computer does.

And there's nothing wrong with wanting to be a causal factor in changing the beliefs of others, even if I am aware that I myself am caused to want to be a causal factor,
