I thought determinism was making you be here?I've said everything I can to keep your interest. If I haven't, so be it. You can move on DBT, no one is keeping you here.It makes no sense, sorry. And it's not because I say so. The reasons why it has no merit have been explained more than enough times, only to be ignored or brushed aside and the claim repeated.
No one is keeping any of us here, yet here we are.![]()
If determinism is true, it doesn’t depend on someone being there to make you do something, but that events unfold or evolve as they must.
As they do, not as they must. Same old modal fallacy.
With no possible alternate action, "must" describes the evolution or progression of events well enough, as does necessitation.
The word is not the thing. How the system works is not changed by the words we use.
I merely refer to determinism as compatibilists define it to be. As an incompatibilist, I don't dispute the compatibilist definition of determinism, which is not the point of contention.
Anyhow, this has been done to death, so I don't want to get into it again.
Nor I, but there are possible alternate actions. This is where you err. All alternatives are possible. The one that is realized is the one that is, not the one that must be. This is your modal fallacy again and again,
