"When one acts, one acts in the way one does because of the way one is. So to be truly morally responsible for one's actions, one would have to be truly responsible for the way one is: one would have to be causa sui, or the cause of oneself, at least in certain crucial mental respects. But nothing can be causa sui - nothing can be the ultimate cause of itself in any respect. So nothing can be truly morally responsible."

Determinism vs freewill is just semantics. Neither will affect anyone's philosophy because people just act to reduce unease. The sole source of unease in this is the argument itself
