But surely the test we need is not one where YOU decide what I choose to
believe, but where I do.
There are so many past examples to choose from, but the most striking one
was when I served on a jury and chose what to believe after hearing
evidence from both sides.
If you want a repeat demonstration, you can give me pro & con evidence
for some proposition & I will choose whether I believe it or its
contradictory.
Of course, beliefs aren't the only thing involved in free will.
You could simply ask me to raise either my right or left arm,
I would choose which to raise.
