Ah. Then I decide to disbelieve in the deterministic model of the universe proposed. And I cannot be faulted for that, because its a consequence of the evolution of the universe. So we're done here.

Agreed! I said from the start - I'm not claiming that this is how reality works. I'm just pointing out that it is self-consistent and that it does solve the paradox.

I myself can't entirely believe this notion of a fully deterministic universe. Especially one that doesn't even involve randomness (though randomness by itself wouldn't bring in any possibility of choice).
