The randomness of events spun by a divine spider

The randomness of events is the inverse of the Christian world, spun entirely by a divine spider, 

divided between the realm of will and the great cosmic folly, the world of effective history knows only one kingdom, without providence or final cause, where there is only the iron hand of necessity shaking the dice-box of chance.

 Chance is not simply the drawing of lots, but raising the stakes in every attempt to master chance  and giving rise to the risk of an even greater chance.

The world we know is not this ultimately simple configuration where events are reduced to accentuate their essential traits, their final meaning, or their initial and final value. On the contrary, it is a profusion of entangled events. If it appears as a “marvelous motley, profound and totally meaningful,” this is because it began and continues its secret existence through a host of errors and  a figments of the imagination
