Since law requires responsibility, does that make any proponents of law inherently religious? I "believe" in free will, in the sense that my actions are a product of my mind and physical laws - would you call me religious? Free will is a philisophical concept, not a religious or scientific one.
And why is the notion of moral responsibility we have dervied from a notion of sin?
Plato doesn't talk about free will and Aristotle is a compatibilist. The chief worriers about free will were Boethius and Augustine - who were unsurprisingly Christians.
