They were not scientists in a position of power, religious or otherwise, whatever otherwise is supposed to entail.It's why all sorts of "incentives" and punishments are necessary What incentives and punishments were involved in the experiments?to offset the more or less complete absence of any will, let alone free will in the average person. The branch of scientists didn't come to your conclusions. What experiments did you do to come to your conclusions? What are your credentials?

Experiments have been posted, quoted, references and citations given, case studies of the consequences of brain damage, chemical imbalances, applied current producing fear, love, hate, the sensation of moving when no movement is being performed, etc, etc, have been presented. The simple fact is that you prefer magic and woo, therefore reject anything that doesn't conform to your beliefs.....and argue despite having an obviously poor grasp on neuroscience and brain function. Sorry if that sounds harsh.
