I'm thoroughly convinced about cause and effect being valid.-I always was too. But had never applied it thoroughly to the concept of free will. Once I started thinking about free will terms of cause and effect ... an overwhelming feeling of cognitive dissonance erupted. -I understood free will is a concept I could not defend intellectually. It took a couple months or so to let go of the concept of free will.
