    Even if free will is an illusion, its best to teach it. Otherwise you’ll have people going its not my fault I killed my father. I was prophesied to do so.

      Ah yes, just as one chooses to be gay or houseless. /s

      Whether or not free will exists is a fine philosophical debate but teaching it would be akin to doing the same with religion in school. Fine as part of a college course but not for primary.
