Can't we have one world that is purely deterministic and another world that is deterministic/random and another world that has room for free events?
So this is another way of saying that the determination of events has to involve, at some fundamental level, the entities involved in those events to make any possibility determinate?
I'm not great with terminology, but are we ruling out contingent necessity?
