You're free to do your own research on the subject. Please let me know what you find out because, like Jerry Falwell Jr., I like to look.
I've done a lot of research on randomness. I will continue doing so.

You insist on writing "magical" even though I showed it is empirical.
If randomness was empirical, then it could be measured. Did I miss your reply to the question about proving it's existence and effects?
I even posted a physics link, which you obviously didn't look at, on the subject.

Excellent. Why do you think this distinction is important? Regardless if randomness can be measured or not, so what? How does that change our lives?
Nothingness is not just the absence of things in space. Where is space?
The large, expanding bubble around us.
First, I never believed in determinism in physics. I never experience the world as being deterministic. The quantification of randomness makes more sense to me.
Second, randomness is the absence of necessity. The universe does not have to exist and all events are conditional.
Third, I experience randomness all the time. As I was walking down the street today a car drove by. Nothing deterministic about my being there on the sidewalk and that car being there at the exact same time.
The X factor in each case was a human people.]
Randomness has nothing to do with psychology or mysterious forces.
Then why do you think it's so important?
Same reason I think the nature of the physical universe is important. I live there.
Yet you insist that there must be "inherent randomness built into the system" otherwise it all falls apart. Is that correct?
Not sure what you mean, exactly. I believe randomness is a property of the universe. I see it all the time. Life occurred randomly, for example.
If randomness is a part of the Universe, why is it so hard to find? Computer programmers try all sorts of elaborate tricks to simulate randomness, but there's no way to really create something that doesn't exist.
Pseudo random numbers. https://www.cs.utah.edu/~germain/PPS/Topics/random_numbers.html
Random Numbers on a computer are not really random. They are a sequence of "pseudo" random numbers.
Right now I look out the window and see four people walking. The fact I am here, at this time, with four people walking, is random.
No. You chose to sit there. Those people chose to go out. The human factor is never random.
No one chose both events. That's the difference.
Correct; you chose your actions and they chose theirs. Are you saying the actions of each were not predictable?
