Indeterminism (from Latin in - and Latin determinare - to define) is a philosophical view and methodological position that deny either the objectivity of causality ( ontological indeterminism) or the cognitive significance of a causal explanation in science (methodological indeterminism). In the philosophy of science : a concept according to which the fundamental laws of nature are probabilistic in nature, and the case is not only equal in nature to the essence of nature, but also more fundamental, allowing to explain its self-creating and evolutionary nature. Indeterminism can be both theological , denying the self-sufficiency of nature and appealing to God to explain the integrity and evolution of nature, and naturalistic, proceeding from the idea of self-sufficient nature. It is opposite to determinism [1] [2] .
