Many peoples belief's of what is random is fundamentally misplaced. Nothing is truly random, it only has the appearance of being so. Let me try to explain...

It is fair to say that if you knew the position of two molucules in a vacuum sealed jar and the relative direction and velocity of these particles, then in theory, we can predict the position of those two molocules at any time in the future by calculating how they will bounce off the walls of the jar and also each other, etc? That sounds fairly feasible, doesn't it? But in practice we discover we cannot actually do this because the jar is part of a larger system that is influenced by the heat of objects around it, the gavitational pull of those objects and a fininte number of other factors, all which influence the movement of the molocules in the jar.

So the model we originally had needs tweaking to take into account all these factors, unfortunately, at this moment in our history we don't have the computing power to accomplish that. However, just because we can't predict where two mocules will be positioned doesn't mean we can't approximate the behaviour of even more particles! For instance we can determine with some accuracy how a jar full of air particles will react to heat being applied to it using mathematical formula that computers today can execute with ease. And although we won't know the location of each particle, we will know (very accurately too) about the pressure build up (due to the gas trying to expand due to the increased movement of the particles within the jar) and various other factors that will occur because of the heat being applied to the jar.

On occasions a blurred, peripherary vision supplies enough detail for what we want to see. The mind has an amazing way of filtering the visual noise to see what lies hidden beneath.

Affecting Die

So, even though we can't predict the next roll of the dice, we can approximate that one in thirty-six times they should land on a double six, or should they? What if the die we're using are weighted and are designed not to land on double six? Does that mean we can never roll that elusive double six combination or does it simply mean that the combination is harder to realise?

What if, by using some kind of trick, we could magically choose what numbers we wanted the dice to land on? What if someone just happened to be so incredibly lucky that the dice just responded to their whim as if under some form of mind-control?

The Source

In the beginning only the words existed, written deep into the earth, waiting to be discovered. With time humans learnt to move the earth and found some of the words that had been hidden, partial truths, first mistaken and then manipulated into a tools, but instead of controlling the world around them humans have used these words to control one another. Thus a world of dominance has been created because controlling and manipulating the truth brings power, a world where the truth is shaded away from prying eyes. Yet, hope exists, because the truth always exists, and like a beautiful woman, she likes to be laid bare. Remember, always look beneath what you first see on the surface and find the truth of the matter by finding it's source.
