Thank you to those clarifying my poor definitions Pyrrho and Whateverish, and others. I know there are other more specific variations of each kind. Again, this poll was to determine if determinism WAS an outlier, and also which belief is the most common on this forum, as I was honestly curious. I'm actually a tad surprised, but in a good way, that determinism not only ISN"T an outlier, it's ahead in the poll.
I never assumed soft determinism to be a form of compatibilism because randomness does not = free-will, I just don't see how. But I'm open to that definition if others think it fits better.
So...as I thought though, Libertarian free-will has few votes, and no one who voted for that posted in the thread. I'd like to know though, if the people are honest enough to step forward, if both of those votes so far were made by theists or deists or who?
