If we don't know the first cause, how can we be confident that it will not occur again in some guise and break the cycle of cause and effect as we presently quantify it?
AND
''We live in a world where things can be described classically. However, every single physical properties (color, texture, strength, magnetism, elasticity, etc) is directly governed by quantum mechanics. None of these properties can be explained without QM. We cannot understand fully this classical world without understanding QM.''
If I understand you correctly you say that, as things stand, the micro and macro explanations of behaviour apply to all objects irrespective of their size. You are non-committal on whether these accounts will ever merge to give a single theory, which is perfectly understandable. Personally, I feel that they eventually will do, but as I learn more I tend towards the emergent rather than reductionist take on matters scientific (but that is a discussion perhaps for another day?).
If QM can indeed be applied to the problem of free will on the level of the individual human being, in my view, it must affirm its existence. Predetermined cause and effect may be assigned varying levels of probability, if we are ever in possession of all of the necessary data. However, just as an electron in a hydrogen atom is likely to be in a S orbital it might be in a p, d or even f alternative, so it must be with human behaviour and non-deterministic free will.
Finally, I know what you mean by the term ''steady state universe'', but I dislike it. This is because to me it implies an infinite universe, lacking a singularity (?unless that is what you mean?)
