You are most patently wrong, if this is what you are claiming. Randomness exists.

or it doesn't. You couldn't possibly tell, I'll even explain why if you like.

[/ QUOTE ]Please do.

I'd be very interested to learn the proof for the total determinism of everything!

Though none of this has anything to do with god.


[/ QUOTE ] It has everything to do with the question of God! (I.e. whether a Creator exists or not.)

If randomness does not exist in the universe, then the probability of the existence of a creator/designer of the universe goes up insanely.

No, the reason you are wrong to claim you can tell if X exists is not a proof that X doesn't exist. I think that's obvious but I can explain if you like.

[/ QUOTE ] Sounds unlikely but some proofs that randomness exists would prove god didn't exist (sadly such a proof cannot exist even if randomness does). You can see why.
