Originally posted by DoctorScribblesAt T0 the proposition is true because at T1 there will be facts that make the proposition true. Of course, if E really is random then we couldn't come to know at T0 the proposition 'E will occur at T1', but that shouldn't be worrying. There are any number of propositions that are true but that cannot be known by anyone.
Suppose at T0 there are not causal antecedents sufficent to bring about E.
At T0, why does the proposition have the value 'true'? If it has that value, what is it saying is the case in the universe? For example, the true proposition "The Sun exists" says that it is the case that there is a sun in the universe; it distinguishes our universe fro ...[text shortened]... T1? Prior to T1, would you characterize the truth values as information?
