I don't believe in determinism except as a probabilistic function

There is only one way for the universe to be deterministic, and that is the way it appears to be now. There are many ways, a probable infinite number of ways for the universe to be non-deterministic.

The intereresting thing about NOW is that it is the boundary between the deterministic past and the non deterministic future. You could almost think of it as the point in which time is freezing.
