Dennett throws down the gloves and pummels Sam Harris right in the gut

[Mudhammam]

Okay, well not literally. But a week or so ago Dennett released his first formal response to Sam Harris' hard determinism argued in The Moral Landscape and Free Will, and it's a pretty thorough demolition. Dennett even calls the latter book a "veritable museum of mistakes." It will be interesting to see how Harris responds and he most certainly will. Maybe we'll even get a debate between the two this year. If you are interested in the free will vs. determinism debate and have the patience (it's around 20 pages), Dennett's essay is well worth the read.
