Мне кажется, свобода воли все же существует, но это не та свобода воли, о которой грезят крайние индивидуалисты, считающие, что они — полные хозяева собственной судьбы. Мозг испытывает влияние тысяч неосознанных факторов, которые заранее располагают нас к определенным решениям, даже если мы уверены, что принимаем решение совершенно самостоятельно. Это не обязательно означает, что мы лишь действующие лица в фильме, который можно в любой момент перемотать и запустить с начала. Сценарий финальной части фильма еще на написан, так что строгий детерминизм нарушается из-за тонкого сочетания квантовых эффектов и теории хаоса. В конце концов все мы — хозяева своей судьбы.
