>So how is it exactly that you can force YOUR will on it instead of the opposite? It its the single atom that choses what do to and not you.
I've answered this objection multiple times already in this thread. Let me answer it again.
I do NOT use physics to provide a mechanism for free will. I believe such a project is stupid and doomed to fail.
I merely point to indeterminism in physics to refute the only known potential defeater for my belief in free will, namely determinism. The belief in free will itself stems from a completely different source than physics, namely my own immediate perception of free will.
>Your example already shows no signs of free will since its being decided by a cointoss.
My example is not about showing any signs of free will. It's merely to refute the theoretical possibility of a laplace's demon and to demonstrate that quantum mechanical effects are not restricted to the small-scale but have life-size massive consequences.
