Are philosophers determined to smoke tobacco and pose with pacifier pipes in their mouth?

Do we have freedom to choose to not smoke based on a calculation by our individual intellectual activity or do we have to follow social standards?

I decide to not smoke because I THINK that it is better. I don't smoke, therefore I am. It may be stupid but that is my way to use my freedom.

Determinism is FALSE because casual laws are incomplete and includes a portion of irrationality. This rip in the causal web leaves room for change and evolution. Without that possibility the Big Bang would never have occured at all.
