Few things hurt science more than people who put their desire for their ideas to be true, over experimental evidence. Unfortunately, the more difficult it is to gather experimental evidence (as it is psychology), the more this desire takes over, I think.
Currently, we have no choice but to relegate everything we think we know about consciousness to the realm of hypothesis, because the only form of evidence we have (first hand experience) cannot be shared or analyzed. I don't have a huge problem with people hypothesizing that consciousness (or perhaps more aptly, free will) has quantum properties, but they should clearly label them as such -- hypotheses.
