But are these physical constraints actually greater than the moral constraints that affect our free will decisions ?
I think not for free will is ultimately about choices and especially moral choices rather than the firing of neurons
Where exactly do we measure these moral constraints ?
Morality is an abstract concept and so is not something that can be measured
However it does exist because it is a consequence of evolutionary psychology
