I surely can't be the first person to think that the free will/determinism debate is rife with scope ambiguity. Consider the natural language claim that: if the world was in state S1 in 1900, and the laws of nature imply that if the world was in state S1 in 1900, then John will do act A at midnight, 1st January 2010, then John must do act A at midnight, 1st January 2010.
