Is Randomness Real?

Thinking about chaos theory and Divine Providence, and messing around with a deck of cards, I came up with this video:

Many people in this world attribute everything to themselves and to their own prudence, and anything they cannot claim in this way they attribute to chance or coincidence. They do not realize that human prudence is nothing and that “chance” and “coincidence” are empty words.

-Emmanuel Swedenborg, Divine Providence #70.
