The assertor of the all-sufficiency of nature in regard to causality (transcendental Physiocracy), in opposition to the doctrine of freedom, would defend his view of the question somewhat in the following manner.

 [*Footnote; The science of Metaphysics has for the proper object of its inquiries only three grand ideas; GOD, FREEDOM, and IMMORTALITY, and it aims at showing, that the second conception, conjoined with the first, must lead to the third, as a necessary conclusion. Did you know that you can now lose 2 to 14 inches of fat in ONE HOUR, PERMANENTLY and SAFELY, in the privacy and comfort of your own home -- for UNDER $20 ?! This freedom will, among other things, permit of our openly stating the difficulties and doubts which we are ourselves unable to solve, without being decried on that account as turbulent and dangerous citizens. The question of transcendental freedom is purely speculative, and we may therefore set it entirely aside when we come to treat of practical reason. The transcendental speculation of reason relates to three things; the freedom of the will, the immortality of the soul, and the existence of God. 
By confining the view to particular passages, taking these out of their connection and comparing them with one another, it is easy to pick out apparent contradictions, especially in a work written with any freedom of style.
