The very first question we have to ask is: Are we human beings 100 percent governed by the laws of physics? If you jump out of a window, the laws of physics say that you are going to hit the ground. You can use all of the free will you want, but it’s not going to stop you from hitting the ground. So why would you think that it works any differently when you go to decide what shirt you’re going to wear in the morning? It’s just that one case is a more crude prediction and the other case is a more detailed prediction.
