Free Will

Autonomous, undetermined, agency.

The ability to sort through an array of feelings and non-material emotions, and to pick which one will take precedence and to act.

Contrast this with a computer, whose agency, no matter how complex, is dependent on an algorithm, not a prioritization of feelings. Or, an animal, which has the feelings, but no capacity to sort or choose.

Objections
All decisions are determined by external inputs. Though these inputs are too complex for us to predict, there is no such thing as free will.
– Admitting that there is spiritual reality (from the evidence) provides a much more satisfying explanation.
