You don't get to throw out the outliers just because they don't fit into your categorization scheme. Nor am I only referring to that. The majority of the interlock of systems in our body is chemical, not mechanical, and that's where the real complexity is and where the issues arise.

You are either not arguing in good faith or you do not understand what deterministic means. Or your understanding of biology is sufficiently shallow that you don't understand what I'm talking about.
