During a discussion on free will, the person arguing against free will brought up an interesting point:
We do not punish mental patients for what they done as we do criminals, because their brains are wired a specific way they have no control over, and have therefore no accountability. However the criminals as indeed all humans brains are wired in a specific way we have no control over either, yet we are held accountable. What exactly is the difference we hold one individual accountable and not the other, what quantifies it?
