A question about 'free will'

I don't really understand the concept of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_will]free will[/url]... (You might say that I view everything as hard determinism) I mean, if free will exists, there should be an alternative of having free will, right? So, how can you see the difference? And how does a world without free will work? [spoiler]If you think that this is a stupid thread, feel free to ignore it :D [/spoiler]

  • [quote]I mean, if free will exists, there should be an alternative of having free will, right?[/quote] I don't understand that bit. But I don't believe in free will. Everything we do is the product of our upbringing, environment and genetics. Even the most arbitrary choices are predetermined, even if they aren't influenced by prior factors.
