Indeterminism in mathematics

Indeterminism in mathematics
Indeterminism as controversial as it may be for biologists, physicists, or philosophers, is my "idea fix" in connection with atheism because in my opinion it is the only way to fill an important gap in the disproval of God, and particularly the disproval of the belief of people in Destiny.

In mathematics there is a branch named stochastical calculus which deals with indeterminism problems.
I don't have the expertise of stochastical calculation but I would like to remind us a particular thing about indefinite numbers we have learned in College.

Infinite is defined as a limit of a series of ever increasing numbers , let's note it as w
Now, w divided by a finite number or multiplied with a finite number is also w.
But w divided by w is an indefinite number.
Similar 0 divided by a finite number or multiplied by a finite number is 0, but 0 divided by 0 is an indefinite number

Analysis of graphical functions deals also in particular cases with indefinite solutions

This was only a little demonstration that indeterminism expressed by indefinite numbers is a mathematic reality in the physical world despite it's controversial situation in science.
