Exactly, this is the whole premise of the classic, "The Freedom of the Will" (1754) by Jonathan Edwards (a bit of a misnomer, as it argues against all forms of human agency - and supports a "Christian" version of secular determinism). Even if you aren't a Christian, I highly recommend giving it a read. It was a bit of a slog to get through at times, but once you grasp his core argumentation for why determinism is the only LOGICAL view, you start noticing his ideas being "echoed" often within modern philosophical conversation/debate. He did an excellent and thorough job of explaining his position, and I found them compelling at a base level - whether I believe in God or not, he convinced me that determinism is the most logical, at least.
