David - it's not just constraints beyond our control. Brains, DNA genetics etc. It's about the information we receive and the universe we are born into. > > I would like to know when we discuss free will what exactly are we free from. > > rom-The brain is very plastic. It can grow new connections in every direction from the neurons that affect memory, ideation, knowledge,etc. Nothing can control what I want my brain to do for me. I can analyze any information I receive and reach my own conclusions. I know that I am not free from my parent's influence on me as a child. From recent research I know that my Mother had a tremendous influence on my intelligence. Mother who read to their children and stimulate them to learn increases the child's IQ. Tell me what we are not free from?!
