I said nothing of qualia. Science has no tools to even begin trying to model, describe or explain them. All I am saying is that from a physical perspective, a mind is just as deterministic as an orbit. So far nobody has discovered anything to suggest otherwise. You're taking a concept that exists outside the conceptual space of physics and using it to make statements about physical systems.

Except that every one of us experiences otherwise daily in our own decision making.

How exactly are you down voting me? I thought HN doesn't allow us to down vote responses to our own comments.
