Hume's Compatibilism - a crisis!!

I'm currently reading this


http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/hume-freewill/


Why don't you join me? :)


More later. Probably much later. What does this 'weekend' thing mean?


So far, we seem to have a problem because we agree with ... err ... Kant!!! :\  He describes Hume's account of moral freedom as a “wretched subterfuge” and suggests that a freedom of this kind belongs to a clock that moves its hands by means of internal causes. 


HOMEWORK


You must:


  • read all of both Hume extracts
  • read the text book to p328 'The Implications of Determinism'
  • Listen to the Pink podcast (link below)
  • read the Pink article (links below)
  • Or FAIL.
