I Ought to Reply, So I Can
Philosophia 47 (5):1547-1554 (2019)
Abstract
I have elsewhere given three arguments for the claim that there can be a reason for a person to perform an action only if this person can perform this action. Henne, Semler, Chituc, De Brigard, and Sinnott-Armstrong make several objections to my arguments. I here respond to their objections.Author's Profile
