Yes, while your brain is functioning properly, you have made the decision to doubt free will. It is your freedom of thought which allows that conclusion.-I will try one more time.-I have a sense of free will. So please don't answer the question in terms of my supposed free reasoning/thought. whatever. It is not my question.-If I (or anyone else for that matter) did not have a sense of free will, would my (or their) brain be functioning properly?-You have been conflating a belief in free will with a sense of free will, every time I ask this question. -Apparently not everyone can detect the same smells. So are the olfactory senses working "properly" in those that cannot smell something or have a very much higher threshold for detection? This is the sense I am asking the question. Similarly if someone does not have a sense of pain, is their nervous system working "properly"?
