Re:“True” Randomness vs. “Pseudo” Randomness

Chaos is a faith and it is the only faith consistent with a metaphysics of randomness. This is why I dislike the terminology of "true" and "pseudo" randomnness. Anything that is called "random" is ultimately "pseudo-random", because the only thing that the term can ultimately denote in an ordered and observable universe is various scales of unpredictability. What is here called "pseudo-randomness" is simply the attempt to represent unpredictability in an ordered artifice, and is in reality no different from "true" randomness".
