[QUOTE="Bradskii, post: 77646482, member: 412388"] I did clarify that I was describing causal determinism. That any event is caused by previous conditions. Or to put it another way, no event happens without there being some cause. As per Aquinas (and others). So in that sense the world is determinate. So any decision one makes is determined by previous conditions. Repeat the exact conditions and the event will happen exactly in the same way. If you think that wouldn't happen, then can you give me an example where it doesn't? [/QUOTE]
