Do you think Leiniz's system precludes human free will? I'm assuming you are referring to his theory of true predication? Well, he doesn't think it does. That statement that all things predicated of a subject are contained within its nature is not a statement, he says, about necessary truth, but it is a statement about contingent truth. Dodgy, huh? |

I guess my question was about the legitimacy of that distinction, between necessity and contingency, in leibniz. |
