Of course I'm willing to change my mind, but so far no one has ever given a compelling argument. I just follow Occam's razor.

OK, fundamental physics might not follow hard determinism (or not in a way that we currently understand), but please, indeterminism says nothing about free will, human thoughts, or anything related to that. If you want to say the human brain follows the same physics rules as everything else in the universe, and that this implies some indeterminism, sure. That's almost certainly correct. But where do thoughts arise from that?
If you sprinkle randomness on the process, I'll agree with you; but nothing in physics even suggests ANY link between indeterminism, superposition, etc. and thought. So my point still stands: free will as we usually envision it has no reason to exist. The fact that particles can be in two states at once does NOT contradict this.
