> Is a dog responsible for grabbing a piece of meat off a kitchen counter in an unguarded moment. Here things get a little murky. Plainly the dog did it. And in this sense is responsible. But here we are tempted to give it moralistic twist, but our better judgement prevails and we understand the dog has no free will.-The dog chose to steal the meat. He acted of his own decision, which to me is free will. And he conscously chose to do that. Does he have much consciousness? No, but he is conscious and can act on choices.
