ON DETERMINISM: Denying 'free will' obscures your choice to follow your OWN will instead of God's, by pretending to follow The Laws Of Physics or The Universe, but you're born selfish like we are all born in sin.
Also note that an absolutely free will would be omnipotence meaning you reside in Meinong's jungle with Jehovah and the other impossible objects, but here you are, in the flesh, therefore your will is not absolutely free:

More generally, see: https://adamgolding.substack.com/p/compared-to-what
It is also moral perfection which lands Jehovah in Meinong's realm -- this is one reason Meinongianism is so unpopular among Atheist Analytic Philosophers, for Meinong's realm is akin to heaven, for it is where God must reside, and yet it is a larger realm, comprising The Devil as well: Evil beyond the bounds of logical contradiction.
Atheist Analytic Philosophers, of course, should merely correct the definition of Atheism:

So, determinists probably secretly despise their own will and are looking for daddy.
