I'll bring up an interesting topic on this: In computer science, there is no "true random" generation in code. It's generally pretty reliant on methods and routines to generate a random number based on the current state of the machine. This is why (in an unchanging machine), that game playback in some games can mirror the original exactly, just by recording the user input at each interrupt...

That being said, I am one for choice and coincidence, but on an atomic level, one can easily see we're slowly discovering the laws by which these universal systems enact, and if we eventually made a perfected "atomic simulator", wouldn't that then prove that we're living in a world of fate?


We are the atomic simulator :)

Seriously though, we cannot know the future in any way. We just deal with odds/likelihood for example, the weather forecast.
