In fact, strictly speaking, the origin of free will for human beings is the response of life to the environment in which it lives. The needs of life itself for reproduction (replicating itself) and survival, as well as the natural selection, have created various behaviors of humans and many animals. Under the trend of the dopamine mechanism, various behaviors have quantifiable stimulation to the brain. As human beings have the ability to actively choose rationality, the process of their choice is the castration of this natural instinct. From this perspective, Satan is actually our original sin. All of this, for eating, for mating, for material things, and so on, there's no escape from us, because that's our nature as creatures. But fortunately, we have brains, and evolutionary sifting allows us to think against all our animality. And it is our castration of our own animality that has created today's complex social machines. It is safe to say that wisdom is the ultimate answer, not free will.
