Can you believe in freedom of will in a mechanistic universe? is there a part of your consciousness that isn't of your brain, yet you can only "observe" through your cognitive faculties? This is the partition from the host, recognizing it's ineffability is like realizing you "need a key to a lock that is inside out".
This is also the source of many a person's intuitive grasp on the irreducible aspect of reality, that, if everything is information at it's most basic basic level, there must be some sort of over-mind or meta-consciousness. God does not fall into this conversation. Though I would posit that movement without inertia requires at the least an intention.
