Science’s determinism and philosophy’s free will jointly blame determined subjects
Evidence
The individual scientific disciplines, forced to side with determinism as a result of their search for scientific laws, left the question of free will to philosophy, which answered it in terms of pre-scientific, apologetic ideas. As a result, philosophy confirmed the criminality of subjects whom the sciences presented as determined. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 2554
