Is there a way to rectify the universe as a chaotic deterministic system with human free will? Are there truly no totally random events? Is the universe simply not chaotic (or deterministic)? Should I stop engaging in mental activity beyond midnight to the extent that it leaves me hopelessly unable to sleep?
Questions, questions.

yes. maybe. think of the illogic of the quantum universe as opposed to the logic of the universe around us. perhaps on the microscale there is free will but on the macroscale determinism rules. of course, that would mean the universe was really deterministic, but it would be so in such a way that we humans would not care.
