Molinists hold that there are contingently true counterfactuals about what agents would do if put in specific circumstances, that God knows these prior to creation, and that God uses this knowledge in choosing how to create. In this essay we critique Molinism, arguing that if these theses were true, agents would not be free. Consider Eve’s sinning upon being tempted by a serpent. We argue that if Molinism is true, then there is some set of facts that fully explains both Eve’s action and everything else Eve does that influences that action; and that if this is the case, Eve does not act freely. The first premise of this argument follows from the explanatory relations the Molinist is committed to, and the second premise follows from libertarian intuitions about free will.

El principal problema del panpsiquismo es el problema de la combinación. Como solución se distinguen dos tipos de panpsiquismo: el panpsiquismo constitutivo y el panpsiquismo emergentista. Pero esta distinción opera sobre la distinción entre fundación y causalidad. Sin embargo, se verán razones para considerar que causalidad y fundación no son distintos. De modo que la distinción entre los anteriores panpsiquismos colapsa. Posibilitando la postulación de un nuevo tipo de panpsiquismo, el panpsiquismo de construcción. También, se trazará un primer esbozo de solución para el problema de la combinación desde el punto de vista del panpsiquismo de construcción.
