Great thought provoking post, and potential popcorn provoking post.
I see freewill as the fundamental choice to think or not to think. I see man as a being being of volitional consciousness, rational animal, and therefore not inclined to determinism. But I do enjoy philosophic discussions. And especially those that delve into the more technical issues. I would disagree with the equivocation of 'perception of freewill' with the 'perception of color', though I think I can see many points or perspectives with the overall gist as it lends itself to 'finding one's way to sobriety'. But overall I am determined to be a freewill-er

Anytime I've attempted to out-think my addiction it manages to make a fool of me. Concepts too complex and elusive to call to memory at a moment's notice just don't stand a chance when that basic compulsion strikes
