Yes, my point is that our senses often portray a reality that doesn't exist. Why should we assume free will is any different?

We don't even have a coherent and agreed upon definition. Every attempt at operationalizating it, results in it not being detectable. It's time we admit that there is no scientific basis for free will. It's not a scientific belief.
