No magic is needed either to explain what happened when you did not move your hand. The output of the processing in your brain (which is essentially chemistry and electricity) was that no electrical signal was to be sent to your muscles. |
Yes but do I have FREE WILL to either move my hand or not move my hand. And if I do have free will, at the point where I make the decision TO move my hand what exactly causes the electrical impulses to appear to move my hand? Where are these electrical impulses while I'm deciding to move my hand? In some form of electrical impulse buffer? And even if so, when I decide not to move my hand and instead remain motionless, where do these electrical impulses go?
At some point, conscious thought has to be converted into physical form in terms of electricity of some sort. Where does that electricity come from a millisecond before it is released by the thought?
