Re: Is a determinist necessarily a realist?
1. Reality exists necessarily (If anyone denies the existence of reality, they are denying anything is real, which is a contradiction, because even at the highest level of scrutiny, it must be admitted that perception is real, therefore a realist of any sort, must admit to the first proposition, the rest follows, I believe this answers your first point)
2. What is called possible is a form of reality
3. Reality includes all of its forms
4. All forms of reality exist necessarily
