Is there a neurological link between our mind and our body?
How free are we if:

>our body controls our mind,
>nothing controls either,
>something besides us controls both,
>or both function separately.

Any of you seen that vsauce video that talked about how when the bridge between the two hemispheres in the brain is cut, it essentially leaves the host with two separate functioning entities in the same body?

Actually the most interseting thing about split brain patients is the excuse phenomena where one side will explain away what the other side just did even though they are separate. Like one side would draw a happy face and the other side would say "I drew that because I like happy faces."
tldr: We're all just zombies that can make elaborate excuses.
