Paul , forget the word 'Libertarian' .... I don't know the historical origin but it is possibly a strawman used by determinists to make freewill sound difficult concept.... it isn't.

No. I don't think so. What is the problem? Classical causality = the law of cause and effect. When we apply this to the mind we have
cause = freewill ..... effect = fate ...... in otherwords we have freewill how we react to our fate, which in turn will create another effect/fate and freewill how we react to it and so on ..... freewill and fate are two sides of the same coin of cause and effect
Now there is no problem here either with the conscious/freewill mind being a casual mind and the subconscious mind being the habitual effects of the conscious mind.
