[MD] Moral Responsibility and Free Will

[david buchanan]

dmb said to Steve:
...And may I remind you that we are talking about free will in the MOQ, not Kant's version or Descartes' version or whatever. I suspect your "something else" comes from some irrelevant source like that.


Steve replied:
...I have defended moral responsibility under the conditions usually considered to most unfavorable to free will, namely determinism, to show that moral responsibility can survive even the mechanistic cause-and-effect picture of the world.



dmb says:
Well, that explains quite a lot.
Ouch. (That was me biting my tongue.)
You've been talking about moral responsibility under causal determinism - to prove you're NOT a nut job.

And how's that working out?
