But, not to be dramatic, that would mean that the first causal factors of the beggining of the universe would be exactly the same, right? Because I would only choose differently if the factors that influenced me stayed the same. This I think is a common flaw with determinism; it creates a causal chain that has to have an end and a beggining.
Why? because a given point on a causal chain always has an effect (something after it) and a cause (something before it). So you need to explain the logic of an infinite chain of events.
