Occasionally physicists bring up the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle as "proof" that there is randomness to the cosmos. Yet ironically the principle itself makes a definite statement about the position and velocity of subatomic particles. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle thus shows certainty, not uncertainty; it in no way proves the ultimate randomness of the natural world.
