I concede that Free Will may not be verifiable through scientific experiment, but as a phenomenologist at heart, I'll accept my perception of it as good enough. Like wise, I will hold others responsible for their actions.

For me it starts with Descart - I think therefore I am. It's my personal consciousness that is evidence enough for me and the fact that I learn over time what in my environment I have control over and what I do not. Thus I can throw a ball but not my automobile. I'm not sure learning makes any sense without free will, or what I can't experience what others are experienceing or what a rock is experiencing.

What is consciousness if not free will?
