That doesn't mean the universe isn't predictable by god/determined, it just means that the god would completely understand the system, and that part of the system's causal nature has to do with the randomness as well. I see a paradox arising. Randomness shouldn't be predictable...

Ever take a statistics or physics class? If not, let me give you the low down. Individual random events aren't predictable, at all. Groups or populations of random events are extremely predictable.
The study of theology, as it stands in the Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on no principles; it proceeds by no authority; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing; and it admits of no conclusion.
