No, the probability is 1.000

Of course! Astronomical probability => 1

A third possibility being non interventionist IE: we are living and growing in a universe in which the rules were established at t=0

Not sure whether this is actually a third possibility though. It is more a subset of random actions. Very interesting explanation, however!

I would think that with a better understanding of the "rules" (physical constants, dynamics of multiphase flow, physics of magnetism, wave motion & heat, chemistry, &c.) we would find there are no such things as "random" actions. To completely understand something is to be able to predict what happens next. God like in our understand, we would become as gods ourselves. Notice the small "g", because we could understand everything except how it started in the first place.

The more 'possibilities' there are, the less chance that you will have to CHOOSE one.

Especially that pesky one that seems to come to bug you in the middle of the night.
