What Fates Impose, that Men Must Needs Abide

If it's all an illusion, and there's no such thing as free will, then how can anyone be held accountable for what they do? [More]

Gee, sorry, couldn't help myself with all that background noise...

This must be why we who believe in individual responsibility are so fundamentally wrong. 

There are exploitable implications, aren't there?

Gosh - I'd like to be paid to conduct an idiotic study like that - but then, I have no control over my own actions.

I wonder how long it will take before this "study" is used as a defense in a violent felony case. After all, free will is an illusion.

For all I know, I didn't just type this. Am I even here?
