^"Scientists now know that the brain runs largely on autopilot;
   it acts first and asks questions later, often explaining
   behavior after the fact. So if much of behavior is automatic,
   then how responsible are people for their actions?" We know this
   in ourselves - you _do_, then you make excuses (to yourself or
   others, depending on the situation) of why you did what you did,
   all to come up with the answer, "See, I'm normal. I'm okay." So,
   is there free will? are people responsible for their actions? (I
   believe there is, and they are - but it does give food for
   thought). For more info, see link, and tell me what you think.^
