If free will was not real

[Gemini]

If colloquialist and compatibilist free will are the same thing then why resist any criticism that it's nothing more than a semantic bait and switch?  

Because the article supported the compatibilist and not the colloquial sense. You can show me where they referenced contra-causality if you like, but I'm pretty sure I didn't miss it.

Good, then bye bye frontal lobes...since that's the context in which you proposed them...and it didn't work anyway.

So would you treat someone with frontal lobe damage the same way as someone with an anti-social personality? Should people who lack a neural mechanism for controlling impulses be incarcerated with people who have a neural mechanism for controlling impulses which has devoloped in ways antagonistic to civilized society? This both an ethical and legal question.

No, you're not, I guess it's just a lapse of your pedantic side.  : shrugs :

Again: duress and coercion are not the same thing as deterministic causality. The deterministic outcome of the causal processes constituting my will aren't an external factor constraining me, as they would be per duress and coercion. The deterministic outcome of the causal processes constituting my will are identical to my will.
