Contradiction is the only basis for an objective concept of "wrong". Accordingly, contradiction is the foundation for both math and logic - there is no alternative. "Ideas" that contain internal contradictions then are inherently, irrevocably, objectively wrong and incoherent.
For example, if I say that "I am taller than myself" - the internal contradiction should be clear and obvious. As such, it is not a coherent idea and is merely gibberish. Every idea that contains any internal contradiction is equally incoherent gibberish.
Furthermore, every animal has a will. Animals can react to their surroundings, predict the future, and plan accordingly. Any substantial attribute of "free will" is necessarily subsumed entirely by the simpler and coherent concept of "will".
"Free will", on the other hand is a gibberish term that is constantly reinvented on every occasion for the specific purpose of fanaticizing that humans are somehow separate and apart from other animals (that then do not have "free will"). This myopic superiority complex is the only consistent and coherent aspect of the concept of "free will". It is useful as sign of uneducated narcissism and nothing more.
If the internal, structural contradiction of "free will" is not obvious on it's face, it might best be revealed by Christopher Hitchens who said: “Yes I have free will; I have no choice but to have it.” This mocking comment of his reduces the idea to an absurdity on its face. Others also readily admit to this same structural defect when they claim their favorite deity has given it to them.
"Free will" proponents then have not been properly educated in either logic or its application both of which are basic requirements for a modern education.
