My argument is not about the accuracy of compatibilism nor am I arguing for compatibilism, nor are my beliefs about any of this relevant the point I am making. I am arguing that the concept of compatibilism exists and is a large part of the free will discussion and Lessans completely excluded it and shouldn't have. He created a false dilemma by this exclusion and that is fallacious reasoning. |
You are definitely arguing for compatibilism. The concept of combatibilism exists obviously, but so do many false concepts. So what? There is such thing as free will LadyShea. All he was required to do was prove his case, not have to argue every single theory out there. It's so easy to tell someone what they should have done. You have no right to do that, because you weren't in his shoes. You didn't make this discovery. So be quiet for a change instead of yapping all the time.
