Why can't I get what he is talking about. When we start listening to what neuro science has to say, the world is going to improve. Humans can't be fully conscious and responsible creatures, only to a degree. We're animals and as soon as we accept there is no actual free will, we can start to understand ourselves better and improve upon the world around us.
