When we observe a phenomenon, we try to understand it using logic. We sometimes forgo logic in certain domains of knowledge, for it is convenient. So is the case in physics, where fringe ideas have become the norm and provably impossible theories have become the acclaimed truth.

One such theory, which is parroted by the curious and the highly acclaimed physicists alike, is that randomness is fundamental to quantum physics. This claim is in direct contradiction to logic, as logic does not permit the existence of randomness in a true sense, else all known laws of logic would be broken. This has not stopped the idea from becoming a central tenet of modern physics, despite it not being fundamental in any important aspect. To be fundamental would mean that without the assumption of true randomness the quantum world would not work, or at least be different. Suffice to say, true randomness has no application, but only serves as a logical contradiction.

Randomness, in it's ultimate form, means that if we knew all the laws and the state of all things inside and outside the world, one would still not be able to determine the outcome of things. Nevertheless the world happens to know how to determines the outcome of things. It's a pending contradiction.
