Well that is true only until it is found to be false! Clearly if consciousness is found to be fundamental, it is likely to turn out to be false. I think consciousness contains the seeds of a variety of revolutions in science precisely because it poses the questions such as whether free will (I am not keen to qualify that phrase) is real or not!Any event can either be caused by something, or it can randomly happen. Those are all the possibilities, and neither one is acausal (libertarian) free will. Even if you say that there is this immaterial consciousness out there somewhere, those statements would also apply to it.
