Can anyone think of items that look like they belong in a set with {determinism, randomness, free-will}, or is that set complete?
(I know that’s a soft question, but I’m happy to hear even silly suggestions.)
I don’t think free-will even belongs in that set.
What you want are
{determinism, at least some randomness}
{compatabilism, non-compatabilism}
and
{free will, ¬ free will}
each set of which is a partitition of logical possibilities. Together, they give you 7 possibilities ( {free will, determinism, non-compatabilism} is inconsistant)
