Lack of free will is not a new revelation. Religions have been saying it for centuries (everything's in the hands of God) and people were fine with it. The fact that we can't control things isn't depressing. Depressing is the knowledge that no one can. I think religions handled this delicate issue quite nicely compared to what neuroscience is doing. I might have given the wrong impression that I side with religion. Just to be clear, I am with science and truth any day. That^ remark is just about the apathy with which science handles the issue of free will, undermining the human nature. Something which (I guess) religion dealth with in a better way.
