If this is true, how does it make you feel? Nietszche believed that most men would not be able to hand it, but I believe that his philosophical ideas, based on ancient knowledge, will eventually be found to be physical realities. Free will is an illusion, but it is also just a mind game we play with ourselves. We are just like the motion of the cosmos, revolving through our life.

beyond life's obvious meaning (to create more life), its only goal should also be more life.
the extension of the human life solves all of the worlds problems because everyday we lose great minds.

Can an illusion be declared unreal if the subject experiencing said illusion is understanding the illusion as reality? What we define as reality may be based on what some see as an illusion (free will), but if it is all we can grasp then I would argue no illusion is possible, since it is the reality created within the confines of "illusion".
TL;DR: There is no illusion, because our definition of free will exists within it.

This overlooks the random element of quantum processes which would play a role in such an event as a new big bang.
But if true, it doesn't really affect me any. The fact that my will follows a predetermined course doesn't change the fact that it is indeed my will, whether it's spontaneous or not really has no bearing to me.

Pick one.
Also, the universe seems to be flat. If it is flat it will never stop expanding.
