Choice and the principle of non-confession

Hello Rabbi Mickey. Today you answered my question about the uncertainty principle. I would like to ask: Have you written/spoke in an interview or podcast about this principle and its context for human choice? When I think about it, even with this principle there is no choice, only randomness. There is a probability that I will do action A, or action B (given that the brain is the only cause of actions) – but for example, if a person is asked if he likes tea, and the next day they ask him this, I don’t think his answer will change because of the randomness of atoms in the brain. The main question is, how can a person’s consciousness be defined, based on matter at all? I simply don’t think it is possible. thanks

I didn’t understand the connection between the sentences and some of the sentences themselves. I have a chapter in the book The Science of Freedom about how quantum theory is useless in explaining choice. I didn’t understand everything else.
