Now you tell me.
Gen-X, you are hopeless. It is a waste of time arguing with you. Recently, you posted the following.
Yes radioactive decay is probabilistic I have always said I agreed with that. But so is everything else. Even deterministic processes can be expressed as probabilistic (ie 100%) so using it as a unique attribute of "randomness" seems inconsequential.
I never saw a post in which you accepted the fact that radioactive decay was a probabilistic process. I read fairly carefully. If you can find a post in which you said that, I will not consider your above statement to be a deliberate lie. What happened? Perhaps you finally realized that you could no longer get away with quibbling. You wasted a lot of my time on this issue, when we could have discussed other issues in more detail after agreeing on this one.
The rest of the above quote is silly.
Many things were considered probabilistic until all of their "inputs" were determined and at the end of those studies they became "deterministic".
Another unsupported statement! Please name a few such "things" that were once considered probabilistic and are now considered deterministic. Who made these studies? I remember that historically the reverse has generally been true. Mainstream physics used to consider the universe to be deterministic and now view it to be governed by statistical laws. I do not believe that you could name any such "things" when you wrote that statement. I wonder if you can come up with any now that I have challenged you on it.
A while back you said that you could find 100 experts to refute an expert I quoted. When challenged, you came up with some silly reason for your statement because you could not find one citation, let alone 100.
You have a habit of making unsupported statements, using illogical statements, and quibbling.
You are either immature or lacking the intellectual resources to deal with threads like this. Why don't you spend more time attacking the religious believers? That seem to be one of your hobbies. Another thought: Find a post that gives you an excuse to brag about being a martial arts expert. That's another topic you like.
Dealing with you is a waste of time.
