Friends,

I'm still waiting for that elusive explanation of how I make a libertarian free decision.

Fortunately, the fate of the vote in Georgia does not hang on this question.

I mean I'm a compatiblist so just gotta take my lumps I suppose.
Also, bait.
Of course it's bait. It's just a thread to say hello to some of my old friends here.

Then again, I really am waiting for the coherent description of a libertarian free decision.

That was meant to be playful if pointed, btw. In any case, welcome back, friend. I hope there are no hard feelings from last time.

Nice to have you back, Ian too. I guess you're busy at the moment.

Yeah, I have been posting a bit this past week, but it's been in the "hidden" sub-forums. (Reminder to newbies: members have to subscribe to them.)
