I didn't make any contradictions.

Quote:
If we can’t predict the future, then who can???
Who cares? We can't.


Quote:
Again, who has predetermined the future if we can’t???
What?

Saying something is predetermined doesn't imply that anyone has made any decision.


Quote:
Why would we mathematically predicted something if we already know it’s on a predetermined path?
What?

We can predict the non linear effect that gravity has on particles, for example.


Quote:
You have half a thought there, what would be do if we were to come across this completely random “something”?
It wouldn't matter. We wouldn't be able to predict it mathematically.


Quote:
Of course we cannot predict another “being’s” actions (if we agreed that the very existence of "god" was true). Much like you could not have predicted I was going to post in this thread.
If we knew the initial position and momentum vector of every particle in the universe at the start of time, then I would be able to predict exactly what you would've said in the post.

That assumes that all particle movement in the universe follows a pattern (linear or non linear).

If there is something that randomly affects the particle movement (something we'll never be able to predict with math), then I wouldn't be able to make any predictions.
