Yet, if you actually believe in biological determinism, there is no way you could have taken anything but that path.
- tsimionescu 2y agoBiological determinism is not necessarily full determinism. External circumstances could have been other than they were, and then the biologically determined decision could have changed. Plus, for every deterministic model, the same arguments would also support a world that also includes pure randomness in addition to the deterministic laws.
