Isn't that how pastafarians make predictions, by relying on the seemingly random wiggles of their noodly lord?

Random input give random output. Ergo, no good for predictions. "Seemingly random" might mean two things:

* There might be a hidden pattern, which can be uncovered by closer inspection
* Or, it might be part of the numeric sequence of an irrational number. Pi is the best example. The numeric sequence appears random; still, it is completely predictable.
--- Quote ---32. And so it came to pass that the Flying Spaghetti Monster took the rest of the weekend off, and on the Monday He did create another midgit; and He spake unto the midgit saying “Thou shalt remember that Friday is a holy day, when thou shalt get up to no mischief, for thou really doesn’t want to be on the receiving end of my divine retribution when I have a holy hangover”.
