both are evident driving forces of the physical universe (although I hold gravity in higher esteem), but they do not clearly represent the effect of the surrounding planes of the multiverse.

nothing is random. everything has been mathematically predetermined.

the problem is, one can never tell if yr decision to eat cereal instead of waffles this morning was the cause of quantum particles tunneling into yr brain, or if you just "felt like it".

I suspect it's the particles.

thanks to the generalized uncertainty principle, my philosophy will never be complete.

There is though, the coin flip. You can't accurately predict a coin flip. There are so many variables, and the one flipping the coin doesn't care about those variables. Is it quantum physics that causes the strength of their coin flips to vary from flip to flip? Or the position of the coin on their hand? Or when they catch the coin and flip it? Surely the environmental conditions and their effects on the coin can be measured, but that lack of thought behind the coin flip. The allowed error by the brain creates something truly random.
