You know, the difference between countable infinity (chaos), and uncouncountable infinity (entropy), escapes some people. Moreover, the very idea of random events makes them soil their shorts.

So they seek an illusion of control ...

That is actually a survival mechanism. I once placed a mouse in a glass cage, next to a snake in a glass cage. In about 12 hours, the mouse dropped dead. It had food, water, and it was protected from the snake by the glass.

I didn’t autopsy the mouse, but I am pretty sure it died of stress.

So, if we throw a virgin in the volcano, G-D won’t drop a burning rock on our house...
