gollark: That's kind of ad hominem. Stuff can still be true if a deterministic process says it.
gollark: Well, the free will thing here seems to just be that somehow you magically get nondeterminism introduced somewhere.
gollark: I mean, if you have some neuron which happens to randomly flick on and off nondeterministically, does that add free will now?
gollark: I don't particularly *like* this way of considering it, but it *is* one.
