I wholeheartedly agree. By "determinism" I just mean the idea that free will cannot exist. The universe is absurd, there is no fate. By "illusion" I mean consciousness gives people the feeling of being above nature.

This is now a tangent, but I feel obliged to point out that, as even Camus admits, absurdity is a property of relations and not a thing itself. Specifically, it is an attempt to have an impossible relationship, like trying to draw blood from a stone. The wild error that Camus makes in the Myth of Sisyphus is considering only man's relation to the universe itself in seeking personal fulfillment rather than man's relation to fellow humans. It is absurd too seek something from the universe itself where the universe somehow acknowledges you, but existence becomes much less cold when you remember that other people exist.
