In other words, is every moment in time the inevitable result of how the universe began and how the universe began the inevitable result of the state of things "before" it?
Meaning, even if there are other universes and they interact with this one, they too are walking their "unavoidable paths".

If we let filmboards represent the universe, then your theory is true.

For yours and ours.
I just want to write good intelligent stories. Why can't I just do that?
I know this conversation will go on until I give up, so I'm surrendering now. 😃 You're a great guy Matt.
I'm confused but thanks?

For my own comfort? Or for others' comfort in general?

No, I wish to know, please answer my question: For what exactly?

Just the response I expected! Now you'll say expectation doesn't exist!

But what is random? If I drop a million dice on the floor, I (a human) can't predict exactly which will show six but every one would land exactly how it would land under those conditions at that moment.

That is the deterministic view. It supposes if you know what happened at the start, then you can predict all events in the future. If quantum phenomena is in fact random, as is currently understood, then the universe is not deterministic. It is random.
