Our Place in the Everything

I have stated previously that I believe in the seemingly trivial fact that rolling dice or spinning a spinner is not a random event at all, but it's the exact opposite of random.
After explaining it to a friend he came to have an epiphany, but he probably had not come to the realization the of it's meaning.
Let me start off by explaining just why rolling dice is not random. The short answer is that dice, like us, follow the laws of the universe absolutely. The long answer is the same answer to the problem of why 2+2=4. Basically, it's just that thats how the universe works , so why would rolling dice have a different explanation? Just like the math problem, every outcome was the result of any number of events, and therefor every outcome has a specific cause. So the outcome of rolling a dice is directly related to the millions of variables that lead to the outcome. These variables can be a basic as trajectory and friction, and as minescule as the individual atoms on the dice's path. But we are nearly always ignorant to all the variables in this equation, and therefor we view the explainable outcome of the rolling of dice as random.
Now if you are still confused don't worry as I have another explanation... Imagine you roled a dice and it landed on six, think of the 6 as the answer to a math problem(which it is). And as logic dictates, all outcomes require events to result in the outcome. Now imagine the trillions of variables acting on the dice as the events in a problem that equal an outcome of 6 like this.....
Variables+variables=an outcome of 6.
This proves that rolling a dice could not be random as there is an explanation to the outcome. Now use this knowledge on us, something that also is forced by the laws of nature, and see how we too are just numbers in a math problem and nothing more than that to the rest of the universe. The laws of the universe are so powerful that we can only do the one possible choice they give us. We don't run on magic and we certainly aren't more powerful than the laws of nature. We are even aware of the laws of the universes existence and we cant control them, for even if we do it would only be because the laws are acting out in the way that causes us to do so. The laws are not even aware of their own existence and they still make us do everything we do including being aware of the laws ourselves! we are not important in their eyes because they CAUSE importance not FEEL it because they aren't affected by it as we are. Yet there must have been an explanation for the existence of these laws for that is the nature of the laws,Logic. I would view the creator of the long line of controlling forces as my God, not some being that acts like a man but something that is more than infinitly more important than us and is nothing like us. It is no more like us then the laws that cause our math problem we call existence. Think of it like this.... We are the numbers in a math problem, the laws are the rules,the person making the math problem is God(we could go further and say that the things making the person make the laws is God but in the nature of it's power we would go on infinitly)
I see my God as more powerful than anything could be and the best part is that logically it must exist and must be powerful. My god can move can move an unmovable rock with an unstoppable force.


My head hurts now.
