You project, btw.
If I were to throw a die, and it results in a 6 I would call that a random event, uncaused. (Now I know full well that at large scales such as die, there really is determinism going on, but consider an equivalent event at a quantum level).
You, however, choose to call such an event 'caused' because there was a probability of 1/6 that it would be a 6. You apparently do so solely so that you can claim that everything has a cause.

All I need is a pint a day. A way to escape. I have known the best, and I'm not good enough.
You made an effort and that is more than most do.
Posting in science is ballsy at the best of times , that's why I stay clear of the place and am content with reading most of the time 🙂

How do you know this?
Do you not determine your own decisions?
That is strange because it seems to me I at least sometimes determine mine.[/b]

Yes, standard meaning.
