What was Leucippus' philosophy's stance on the nature of reality?

  • Illusory

  • Subjective

  • Deterministic

  • Chaotic

Answer

Leucippus believed the nature of reality to be deterministic. This means that all events and phenomena in the universe are predetermined by a chain of cause and effect, without any room for chance or random occurrences. According to this philosophy, every action and its outcome are strictly determined by the preceding factors and conditions, forming an unbroken chain of causality that governs the entire cosmos.
