No LadyShea, you're the one confused, not me. I will use the word forced or compelled, because that's exactly what it is, but these words have been misunderstood in the context of determinism. That is what has caused this apparent irreconciliable problem with these two positions because if we are forced to do something, then it is not of our doing, and if it is not of our doing, that would release us of moral responsibility. This is where his definition is more useful because it is more accurate, and leads to the two-sided equation, which reconciles the two positions.
Fallacious reasoning: Idiosyncratic Language

Also, you just described a form of compatibilism.
You're completely ignorant and you're trying to compensate so you can save face, but you're digging yourself deeper and deeper into a hole of your own doing because you think your reasoning ability is flawless. It is so flawed you will have a very difficult time admitting this not only to others, but to yourself, once you find out how wrong in your analysis you have been.
