This relies on various unstated assumptions.
I would deny the assumption that an event can be probablistic in nature. There are only ever predictions. The distinction between a probablistic world and a deterministic world is incoherent.
- feanaro 6y agoHow do you resolve the problems raised by Bell's theorem?
- ikeboy 6y agoBell's theorem rules out local realism. I view realism as incoherent, so I'm certainly not committed to local realism.
- feanaro 6y agoYou said the distinction between a probabilistic world and a deterministic one is incoherent. But if there is no local realism, wouldn't it be more accurate to describe your position as saying all events are probabilistic rather than none of them?
- XuMiao 6y agoIf quantum reality is objective, then probabilistic reality is objective. Deterministic probability like Chaos or second law of thermodynamics imply the existence of incomplete information. This type of probabilistic reality might be subjective.
- ikeboy 6y agoI don't think that's a coherent concept. It's not clear how one can assert that a particular model of reality is "correct" outside of any predictions than it makes.
