I would argue that for practical purposes, free will should be redefined as the ability to face a choice, and the capability to choose. Our reasoning is irrelevant, the predetermined interactions of our particles is irrelevant. The interactions of all atoms follow physical laws. Yes, in this regard the entire future is as set in stone as the past. The whole universe is like a burned CD playing until it ends. Free will, for practical purposes is a higher level concept, that exists as a mental shortcut/concept in our brains to deal with what to eat for lunch, irregardless of the underlying atomic interactions which run this simulation we call life.
