How flexible is the principle of causality?
#26
RE: How flexible is the principle of causality?
I as a physicist clarify that uncertainty principle doesn't give you proof of true randomness. All it does is show that we can't know the future 100% certain. But not knowing the outcome doesn't prove it's random.

Quote:I'm an agnostic with leanings toward substance dualism, or to transcendent emergence. (by which I mean that once a sentient agent "ascends" out of the pseudo-random soup of particles in the universe, it can function freely DESPITE being completely rooted in deterministic processes. Crazy stuff, right?
Not crazy just stupid and false.
