The Chances of Any event happening are 50/50

Ultimately, everything in the universe boils down to this. The chances of any event happening are exactly 50/50 Every event. Every time. No. Matter. What. As I am sitting here, I am wondering if a meteor will hit my house. I wonder what the chances of this occurring are. Well now I know. The chances are 50/50 A meteor either will hit my house, or it will not 50/50 It either will happen, or it will not happen. There is not a single thing or event that this does not apply to.

  • Well using that logic you can simplify your statement even more. There Is a 100% certainty that something has happened or will happen. If you took a shit today than there was a 100% chance that you were going to take a shit. The 50/50 choice was an illusion it was never there. I wouldn't use that as a basis to live my life though. “I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.” ― Stephen Hawking
