Does God play dice?

Anyone has read a book about this topic? A friend lately has been telling about it very indefinitely. I kinda convinced to find out what exactly is the theory saying...

Suumary, perhaps?

I haven't heard of the book, but there is a magazine available in any good book store called "Skeptic". I'm sure if you look through their archives on their website they will have something about it.

Its all about chaos man....well worth a read....how much do you knop about chaos theory?

I'll have to read the wikipedia page sometime when I am bored silly and need something to do.

I personally believe that the universe (including ourselves) is deterministic...
though I have no way to determine that

Of course god plays dice, why else would there be 7 days in a week ?

Come on seven !
Our father who art in heaven needs a new pair of shoes !

I don't know nothing about it. How about you?

Your not the only one man, I have never heared of this before.

The Chaos theory is a pretty prevalent teaching method. If you haven't heard of it I'm assuming you didn't take many extra classes in math or physics.

Then you assume wrong, I took a lot of math and physics classes.

lol
Sleeping doesn't count

In all my physics classes it was at least mentioned. I don't think it was ever part of the classes material but the two physics teachers i've had always liked to talk about things they found interesting...


Maybe we can't but maybe thats possible
Maybe even if we made such a model that fits with all of science (and I guess all of life) seems like you would never be able to tell if theres something your not considering....or not perceiving alltogether... how would you ever be sure you got it right?
Maybe the model just happens to fit the universe instead of being the truth of existence (I guess that wouldn't stop it from working)

Maybe the universe acts like a simulation...where the content is dynamically generated, and everytime we dig deeper new content will be created. Maybe atoms didn't really exist untill we tried looked that far.
Maybe be we are in a simulation...

Maybe just like subatomic particles are so insanely small the universe is also insanely small in whatever its a part of. That the universe is just one small particle on some lifeform that isn't aware of our existence because we're too small for it to percieve. Maybe things like gravity are because of this lifeform exerting forces that we can't possible understand and just don't notice any change because the scope of our existence is so small in comparison that we are alive and dead in an instant for it (something simliar to how bacteria is for us)

Maybe I had a point...

Did someone see Horton Hears a Who?
