    O'Connor missed Libet's trie opinion which was that we have free will in the forn of veto power, We can veto the action, we can veto the action despite readiness potential.

    Is there an electric impulse before every action? If not, are only some of the actions truly free and others not?
    If there is an impulse before every action, then every action, unconscious and conscious are equally not free. If they are equal he is saying that there is no difference between conscious and unconscious actions, other that an illusion. There is no difference between unconscious and conscious facial expressions. There is no difference other that illusion of free will, but it changes everything.
    So the brain deludes itself that unconscious action is really conscious, yet it makes no difference? Am I missing something?

    yes matter is your creator. In the sense that you are comprised of matter. It took no mind to create you unless you consider your (real) mother and father, other than you parents no mind was involoved in matter combining itself into you.
    We atheist do not know the origin of matter...you sir, are the one claiming that knowledge.

    Was Tim asked to wear casual attire? I know it's crazy, but isn't it difficult to hear what one has to say and to take it seriously when they are wearing sandals? I know that's crazy, but it's true! lol
