We've gotten past the really big thoughts from Decline of the West, but there's still some interesting stuff to go through. This time, we talk about Time, Destiny, Space, and Motion.

Another answer to people who think the world is deterministic (that you can predict the future if you had infinite computing power) is radioactive decay. No-one can tell when a single atom of Uranium will decay. If you can't predict the future of a single atom, how can you predict the world?

Looking forward to the next part!
