You've accepted that free will is an illusion, right? It's incompatible with causality.

There is no way to prove it either way.
Even if you could perfectly predict every action I took, you could still never actually prove that my thoughts are not something more than a chemical reaction
because my internal world is inherently subjective and something that is not contingent on the external world

There is no reason to believe that your mind is separate from your body. This is equivalent to saying "you can't prove unicorns don't exist".

The only evidence for free will is that we feel like our actions are free. If you look closely, even this is an illusion. You don't have any more control over your actions than you do over what flavor of ice cream you happen to like.

yes it's all an illusion.

fucking pricks.

>Incompatible with causality

You mean it's incompatible with the casual closure principle. Free will is not incompatible with causality.

Explain to me how "I could have done otherwise" free will can fit into a causal system.

If the mind existed as a non-physical substance which could direct reality though collapse of the wave function, that would not violate anything about causality.

It WOULD violate the casual closure principle. This states that all Physical effects have physical causes.
