What happens to this "energy" once it is loosed of physiology, genetics, environment, ect.? Is it THEN subject to"free will"? If so, where but in this original "energy" did the source of this "free will" come. In other words, the "free will" that we may enjoy after we throw off the yolk of our mortal coil has to come from somewhere. Is it earned by passing "GO"?
