Free will and determinism

PLEASE INCLUDE A TITLE PAGE AND THE OUTLINE OF THE PAPER WHEN FINISHED

1. 1. Select and briefly define one of the three positions on free will and determinism that we have discussed them in class: incompatibilist determinism, incompatibilist libertarianism (also known simply as libertarianism), or compatibilism.
**I PICKED COMPATIBLISM**

2. In the same introduction that includes the defined position, announce your intention to defend that position and say what the basis or key concept of your argument (e.g., dualist interactionism) will be.

3. Summarize your argument, listing each of its two or three premises.

4. Defend each premise in a paragraph of its own.

5. Consider an objection to your argument that might be raised by another well-meaning, philosophically-minded person, who has a different view on this issue or at least who sincerely doubts that you’ve successfully made your case for your own view.

6. Answer the objection as best you can.

7. Offer a final comment about your current thinking on this philosophical issue.
