People who usually think like this are people that beleive in ideas such as people have "souls". You ARE your brain, you take brain damage and your personality can be completey altered. If you take serious brain damage then it make you into a creationist, ba-zing! John-Dylan Haynes seems to be under the delusion that the brain and you are somehow seperate.

If your conscious mind doesn't up decisions for you, then it's most likely a reflex and not "free will". If i program a computer to jump everytime i say the word “jump”, is that free will?

I'm just saying that this is free will because you ARE making a decision, but your conscience just happens to be the last to know. I mean, there's a lot you brain must process before it makes a decision, so it really doesn't surprise me at all that scientists can do this. Dude, I’m an atheist too.

Your brain (i.e. YOU) has made the decision, but it takes a bit for you to be cognizant about the decision you have made. This is still free will.
