Counterexamples to principle beta: A response to Crisp and Warfield
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research 66 (3):730-737 (2003)
| Abstract | The well-known "Consequence Argument" for the incompatibility of freedom and determinism relies on a certain rule of inference; "Principle Beta". Thomas Crisp and Ted Warfield have recently argued that all hitherto suggested counterexamples to Beta can be easily circumvented by proponents of the Consequence Argument. I present a new counterexample which, I argue, is free from the flaws Crisp and Warfield detect in earlier examples | |||||||||
