In our everyday moral judgments, we typically do not suppose that actions result from deterministic causal processes that trace back to factors beyond their agent’s control. Our ordinary intuitions do not presuppose that causal determinism is true, and they could indeed it is false. The incompatibilist's claim is that if we did assume determinism and internalize its implications, our judgments about moral responsibility might well be different from what they are. Spinoza remarks, "experience itself, no less than reason, teaches that men believe themselves free because they are conscious of their own actions, and ignorant of the causes by which they are determined".

The parties to the free will debate are traditionally grouped into camps with
reference to whether causal determinism and free will are compatible:
compatibilism: our having free will is compatible with causal determinism,
with all of our actions being causally determined by factors beyond our control.
incompatibilism: our having free will is not compatible with causal determinism,
with all of our actions being causally determined by factors beyond our control.

The resulting version of free will MR does distinguish the parties in the
debate. Given this selection, here are the characterizations of the three traditional positions:
hard determinism: because causal determinism is true, we cannot have the
sort of free will required for moral responsibility in the basic desert sense.
compatibilism: even if causal determinism is true, we can have the sort of
free will required for moral responsibility in the basic desert sense, and we do in fact have it.
libertarianism: because causal determinism is false, we can have the sort of
free will required for moral responsibility in the basic desert sense, and we do in fact have it.
