Well, it doesn't appear like you consider what was said
Then you are not really reading his posts for comprehension but rather merely to attack.
Your response has every appearance of an unconsidered rejection of anything related to incompatibilism
No, it has the appearance of a very considered rejection of incompatibilist, as does Marvin's as does Antichris's. I'm not going to claim mine do because generally, your posts DON'T require a lot of consideration.
I wonder, could you even describe your own pattern of actions in your post?
Your arguments from authority are unconvincing mostly because they do in fact all argue against the straw-man of libertarian free will.
It would be like, well, a Christian coming here and then arguing "a bunch of experts all agree" and then every time the "expert", someone very respected perhaps even in their field, retreats back to Kalam or a variation, and then perhaps make a Watchmaker argument.
The Christian might say exactly the same sorts of garbage as you have here "you didn't consider it!"
Of course we considered it. And we rejected it AFTER the consideration, and most of us have even had the kindness to supply the logical deconstructions along with the text "and so I reject this".
All your posts argue of your capabilities is: look up what someone else who facially agreed with DBT said, post their words, then repeat otherwise unargued premises.
It seems that nothing is acceptable when it comes to incompatibilism
I've told you want is acceptable: taking an otherwise "valid" construction of the concepts of compatibilism and ending up with "true = false".
That IS in fact how you disprove something in a system of modal operation.
On the other hand, compatibilism, well, even the local grocer can tell us that free will is compatible with determinism and get nods of approval
Show us the "local grocer" you are trying to reference, please.
All I see here are people who have studied religion, belief, physics, and modal logic very honestly and intently most of their lives, philosophers who do not merely buy a philosophy off the shelf like some Religionist and head off into the wilds of untamed self-directed thought and pull out something real and substantive on a regular basis from that Chaos.
I'm a software engineer and mathematician who taught themselves enough to construct a prime locating function in infinite product terms that doesn't converge to 0, and who is working on formalizing ethics as a math.
Pood is an author who... Well, he's got his own blog and has published several books.
Marvin... Well, as you can see I correct him here and there and I call his reasoning "sloppy".
You're going to find no "local grocers" here. You came to the wrong place if that's who you wish to "convince".
Have you considered looking in a mirror by chance while reminding yourself it is not a window?
And yes, as a matter of fact, many of the people you quote are indeed addressing libertarianism and not compatiblism. I showed you that with Farah IN HER OWN WORDS. How did you overlook that? You know, the part about us being morally responsible for our actions provided that we are not coerced, which is almost WORD FOR WORD what we and espeically Marvin has been telling you hundreds of times? How can you possibly deny that Farah is a compatibilist? Her whole and entire target, as she said herself is a dualist conception of free will, and for the millionth time, compatibilists agree with her that dualism is false
This is the argument and much more of this argument lives in Pood's blog links.
This is the argument you keep snipping out and ignoring.
You seem to be unable to get from "none of these people have argued at all against anything but Libertarian" to realizing that if you can't actually align an argument properly against compatibism, maybe it is the case that there is no argument that you can align, and that you are sitting in your own Atheist Kalam.
Incompatibilism is not wrong
And there's the statement of absolutely faith we always knew you were gearing up for.
We keep saying "we think compatibilism is right because we see no contradiction in the modalities" and then you throw... Invalid constructions back.
I have yet to see you say "oh, you mean compatibilism means I can't follow the word "willed" with "freely?" I guess I'll stop doing that then."
One more time (and for
@Marvin Edwards too): "freely willed" as a construction of utterances is a mistake. "A free will".
How is a free will free? It is free because it met it's requirements. The agent, again has no control over that beyond selecting a will that always was never going to be constrained.
It's like someone winning the lottery. Did they make themselves win? Could they have done anything differently in their picking of the specific numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, because they are an idiot and have insecure luggage? Could they have exercised any operation at all adjacent to picking 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 that would have made them lose beyond "fixing the roller"?
Of course not. It isn't up to them whether their will to win the lottery is free. The only way for an agent to have a "will which is free" is either to select requirements that cannot fail, or a will that will succeed at it's requirements.
There is no way for the lottery winner, or anyone else, to "freely will". They may "will", and causal necessity determines whether their "internal illusion of freedom" was also "real freedom".
rejected without consideration
If the above is not consideration, I wonder what your strategy of finding "experts" and putting "argument from authority" and gems like "Incompatibilism is not wrong" on tap is
will plays no role in the early stages of cognition and cannot alter outcomes when it does emerge.
Hmm... It's almost like we do understand this. I know I just said it but maybe I have to say it again:
There is no way for the lottery winner, or anyone else, to "freely will". They may "will", and causal necessity determines whether their "internal illusion of freedom" was also "real freedom".
This is in fact a criticism insofar as you think compatibilists did not somehow already answer it.
We have you admitting here to "will".
Consequently, will having no agency, no regulative control, no possible alternate action, there is no claim to be made for free will
And again you do it, the bait and switch, where you insert libertarian free will instead of compatibilist free will.
Nobody expects the will to be the interpreter, the agent of process.
The will is not a processor, the will is a list! Lists don't need to be processors, and even the construction of "wills having no agency" means you understand neither the concept of will nor agency well.
Let me repeat:
There is no way for the lottery winner, or anyone else, to "freely will". They may "will", and causal necessity determines whether their "internal illusion of freedom" was also "real freedom".
Sometimes, the will adjusts the agent, because the will is "adjust agency in this way".
Sometimes that will is "study until you answer these questions in this timeframe".
It is a process which modifies the agent,
but it is not the will doing it, it is the agent doing it to themselves, as an execution of the will.
Of course a memory on a computer that holds a list of instructions is not (generally, usefully) going to be tripping write lines on itself other than in it's refresh cycle. It may tell the processor "trip this line until the bit reads high", but it is the agent, the processor, which operates it. If the processor throws back "hit max tries, but didn't flip" the will to do so was not free...
Compatibilism's action carried out without external coercion or force is not an example of free will
And then you step in it again with the failure of a number of words starting with the "A"
"Action carried out without coercion or force is an example of A free will, IFF that action fulfills the requirement."
"Action carried out without coercion or force is an example of A will held by A free will."
These are valid constructions. Yours are not.
Yours indicate you still do not understand compatibilism.
