The Mystery of Free Will

The idea that humans have some kind of special case of agency is sort of a last holdout of anthropocentrism. I think that what follows upon this insight psychologically and socially is almost entirely good. And my argument here is that to fully understand the conditions that cause an eight-year-old child to grow into the man who becomes a prototypically evil person, you would be radically reduced in terms of moralizing him or her. That has to matter ultimately, judicially.
