RE: Determinism Is Self Defeating

It's not just that we don't have good enough data but as I also said: There is inherent uncertainty with observations matching predictions because the act of observing changes the results because of how observation works in the first place.


It's not being unfalsifiable, as falsifying a prediction would be accomplished (in science) by showing that the results lie far from the range predicted. E.g. Refinement of our knowledge regarding the age of the universe didn't falsify the prediction exactly, because it fell well within the margin of error.
