Re: seeing the future

In theory, yes - but in practice, things like quantum fluctuations and uncertainty makes this impossible.

Besides which, any system able to predict the future of the world through calculating the motions of every single atomic particle on the planet, will have to be considerably bigger than the planet itself!

Re: seeing the future

Apply what you know about the past, and the present
and the future unfolds like a headache.

Re: seeing the future

Hi. I would like to share idea regarding this, based on what I termed as my "Rocket Theory" on the other thread Parallel Dimension and Ideal Future.

Humans in the Present are capable of random thought because our Present is expansive in nature. What you referred to as "one huge program" would probably be applicable in the implosive, centripetal dimensions, and in patterns, I referred to - Ideal Past and Ideal Future - wherein our approach would be to treat such patterns as 'memory' and 'envisioning' respectively.

Relative to these two 'programming', we are able to create 'random thought' based on such patterns and we decide, with our Free Will, the outcome of our decisions in the expansive Present as observer-relative. Yet such random thoughts could be differentiated as there is difference when we observe as 'aware', or we observe as 'unaware'.

i do not however beleive in random thought nor randomness
you might say well what about brownian motion but how can something be truly random there is always somthing to influence it or it is inert and still. why do atoms vibrate "randomly" becuase they are charged with energy they vibrate i beleive according to set of wavelengths that are created through electricity reacting with the atom and depending on the atom the magnetic feilds surrounding trhe atom the other atoms present around it its path is preset.
to put it simple you could say i beleive in destiny other wise....

Re: seeing the future

people would be jumping into roads becuase they felt like it etc unless you beleive that for every decision a separate universe is created but the by the time i finish this sentance an infinate number of universes has created and becuase there is an infinate number of universes created the chance that I talking now am not instantly going to disintigrate is at a guess tiny in comparisen to the chance i will and that the fact is the only reason the universe exists as such is becuase there is no randomness.
universes have been created

Re: seeing the future

Therefore it is agreeable with the patterns acquired from Ideal Past and envisioned for Ideal Future and the decision for Parallel Present, ceases the uncertainty of randomness with the awareness that randomness may not be the case for us, and that we can actually create our own destiny with our awareness.

But then it is randomness itself that would most likely cause another universe previously 'created' to disintegrate due the notion when we agree that 'randomness' may not be the appropriate term to be used after all.
