Steve said: So, presumably, the reason dmb hasn't yet responded is because he now finally understands this and is very embarrassed. He has to deal with the fact that he has been berating me for months for asserting logically contradictory notions and not using terms properly, when his own beloved SEP contradicts his usage of the term "compatiblism."

His own words apply best to himself: "You are such an unbelievable hack. If you want to assert freedom, you have to deny determinism. Determinism says you are not responsible for your actions precisely because they were not determined by you, because you were not free to do otherwise. All you questions and objections are predicated on your inability to grasp the basic meaning of concepts in dispute. You equate opposed terms and then wonder why it doesn't add up. Of course it's not going to make any sense if you do that. One cannot reason or think intelligently unless and until you get that straight. Get a dictionary. Take some reading lessons. Until you get ahold of these concepts, talking to you is utterly futile. Ron: Check out Glendinning showing the teeth! Steve: Well, fine. I just don't see why dmb gets a free pass. He has been far nastier to me and much more of a dick to me than I have been to him. I suspect that the double-standard is explained in that people around here are a little afraid of him doing it to them next time. He's a bully, and it feels like I am the only one willing to stand up to him, but I'm gotten a lot of crap for that. I don't want this kinda shit around here either, but I'm not sure how else to handle it.
