Not to be too snarky about something we both agree on, but it is an amusing question to ask. Without free will, it's being discussed because it's being discussed
Sorry, I didn't mean to ask as why the question of free will was discussed, but rather why the concept of free will is the default over the obvious. I moved around some sentences before posting and didn't reword that appropriately. Thank you for pointing it out!!
As of now sure, but you could be taught or brought to a point of understanding where you change your understanding
That'd be because there are people still adamant that they have Free Will, only because they've had that drilled into them from a young age, which is an example of their lack of Free Will...
And those who want to state their opinion on the matter, exactly as I am, because they value what others think of them, because that sociable instinct comes in-built.
