    I don't understand the quantum randomness thing myself, but good scientists are not always good philosophers.

    How many times we heard girls saying 'he isn't the type, he is harmless' and then got kidnapped/raped/stabbed/etc? Those naďve fairies, you can't fix them.

    Things happen by chance when they are beyond our 5 senses.

    If we can't touch it we can't control what happens to it (like we can't touch clouds to make them move or look like something or whatever), if we can't see something we control if something happens somewhere (like a tree falling down somewhere), if we can't hear something we can't do nothing (like a person crying for help somewhere), etc.
