What if free will doesn't exist? There was an experiment done in which a person presses a button to stop a spinning 'clock'. They then note the time down in which they had the urge to stop the clock. However measuring brain activity indicates that the brain becomes active (in the areas relevant) before the person gets the urge to stop the clock. I don't think this is entirely conclusive, but it does raise the question, what if free will doensn't exist? Maybe it is just a trick played on us by our own mind?
