Scientific determinism

Scientific determinism is the idea that all events and states of the universe, including human actions, are caused by prior conditions according to natural laws. Essentially, if we knew the complete state of the universe at one moment, we could predict everything that will happen next. This view sees the universe as a vast, interconnected system where everything follows predictable patterns, leaving no room for randomness or free will in the traditional sense. It emphasizes that everything is governed by cause-and-effect relationships rooted in science and physics.
