I am confused as to the significance of the uncertainty principle. As I understand it, the uncertainty principle states that either the position of a sub atomic particle can be measured or the velocity of the sub atomic particle but not both. This uncertainty principle as I have come to understand it propagates the potential for activity that can be described as "random". This randomness than allowed Stephen Hawkins in a paper to declare that "God does indeed play dice." My confusion is, however, how could it be that simply our inability to measure both position and velocity means true randomness exists. Is it so that just because we are uncertain as to what will happen, what will happen is not a matter of cause and effect
