I agree , we cannot be sure but that is not what the model is saying is it? The model is a picture of determinism at work , and in determinism only one thing can happen so the name ...[text shortened]... ly is quite appropriate.

So who are you claiming is deterministic, or actualistic? No evolutionist for sure, only a christian or a muslim holds that the earth doesn't change for all time

It's logical extrapolation of what 'free' will might look like under compatabilism.
