Agent Causation

• Argument from introspection
  • Options in your decisions feel up to you
    • Not determined by prior conditions
    • Not random
• Argument from moral responsibility
  • Agent causation has to be true otherwise we can't hold people morally responsible for their actions

Objections

• The Problem of Difficult Decisions
  • Reasons for choosing between two options are equal
  • Getting stuck in a space of indecision
  • Eventually you make a decision... but why?
    • The options were equal
    • How'd you pick one over the other?
