said Gregg Caruso, a philosopher at SUNY Corning who read early drafts of the book. “I am in agreement with Sapolsky that life without belief in free will is not only possible but preferable.”


The above is from the article. I think this is key to his belief. Sapolsky was raised religious, but became atheist one night. They don’t really detail what happened, but it sounds like it was a thought experiment. I think it makes him more comfortable to think he wasn’t in charge of his decision. It’s interesting though as someone who believes in predestination would believe the same. I have never believed in that particular theology.
