Unpredictability intrudes at larger scales where most systems are fluid and chaotic. The movements of ocean waves or clouds are chaotic and unpredictable even over the medium term. On longer time-scales the movement of currents in earth's magma, of stars in the arms of galaxies, or of galaxies and clusters of galaxies, are chaotic. We humans live in a quiet storey of a dangerous and turbulent tower block. At bigger and at smaller scales of space and time, events are governed by randomness.
Outcomes are uncertain, risk is endemic, and all sensible bets are off.
According to theistic religions like Judaism, Christianity and Islam, the human race is the central purpose of creation. This view came under challenge when Copernicus proposed that the earth might go round the sun. In the 1920s Edwin Hubble proved that the Milky Way was just one of many galaxies in the cosmos. The images of the Hubble Space Telescope show that the heavens are sown with galaxies as thick as poppy seed. In the age of Hubble, the idea of the centrality of the human race is untenable.
