So...knowing not whether you consider yourself a scientist (I have indicated I am not):

You are asserting gravity is not truth.

You are asserting the law of entropy (2nd law of thermodynamics) from order to disorder is not true.

and you try to relate or compare this to coin tossing?

Physicists always get a good laugh when thermodynamics is invoked to defend creationism (not that the other arguments here are any better...)

I asserted nothing.

I took no stand on that issue either.

Was I not clear? You gave predictions of 100%. I asked if you were certain of your probabilities with respect to something as complex as gravity or entropy. A simple coin toss experiment should therefore be illustrative.

If a fair coin is flipped 20 times in a row, which is the more likely outcome?
A) HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
B) HTHTTHTHHTHHHTHTHTHH
