By natural law I mean laws like gravity and the need to eat. But the perception that someone has authority over you is something that is perfectly within your power to control. Do you believe that anyone has authority over you and your free will?

Depends, is the weapon they have pointed at me or a friend?  If me, then yes, I am in control.  If my friend, then no, I do not have control of their life in my hands like I do my own.  I can be obstinate and take a bullet just to prove how free I am, that no one can control me except by killing me.

I can't say the same for someone else now at my mercy by my obedience to the person holding their life in their disposal based solely on my reactions.

So, it depends.  Just because I view myself as free doesn't mean I can just blatantly go around acting like it in every situation.  Sometimes you need to bow to get to a better place.
