Does coincidence exist?
I don't think it does.
There is no mysterious force called coincidence that will make a rock suddently fall 2 feet more to the right. Nope. That was a bird that got hit in the head with your rock - a bird which wasn't there the last time you did that exact same rock-throw.
But that bird didn't get there by coincidence either. It went there because it started to rain (not by coincidence, but because of metereological systems influencing each other) and it saw a worm (which came out because it's instinct told it to do so).
People ultimately are nothing but really complex animals either. We may think we have a choice in what we do - but in reality, we'll always make the same decision when all the situations around us remain the same. The one we think is the right one at that time. And those factors that determine our reaction aren't random. Everything is influenced by everything else, and never does anything happen 'just because'. There is always a scientific reason.
Now, if coincidence does not exist - would we then not all just be factors into one giant universal formula? And if it does exist - what and where is it?
