If one accepts the physicalist paradigm, then one accepts an arbitrary universe. Multi-verse does not solve the problem, because then the multi-verse becomes arbitrary. If one resorts to an infinity of infinities physicalism, then one abandons cause-and-effect cosmology, and replaces it with pure randomness which is itself arbitrary, because randomness can operate only within non-random parameters (the dice must be designed and manufactured to specifications). Intelligent Design is therefore the most plausible explanation for the origin and structure of the universe.

Free will has nothing to do with uncertainty.
Free will has no relationship to
randomness or chance.
It demonstrates our sovereign
independent agency,
introducing meaning and purpose
into an otherwise futile reality.
Free will, like consciousness, is a
fundamental, an absolute reality
that does not arise from the
material universe.
Combined with Life (or élan vital),
consciousness and free will
define our nature as spiritual
beings inhabiting physical form in a material (created) universe.
