"I don't know your definition of "qualified", but I work as a researcher and teacher at a university in the field of (yes) decision theory and probability. And I would never dream of stating dogmatically that pure determinism does not exist in nature (and, yes, I know about HUP and quantum mechanics).
1: In theory we can know the state of an infinite set of variables, if we can come up with a model that explains their relation flawlessly. I do not propose we can do so currently for even sets of variables with moderately complex interaction, nor that we may ever reach technical efficacy to do so in the future, but you certainly can come up with infinite sets of variables and models that describe their correlation perfectly.
2: If you assume that science has achieved *the* explanation of nature, and that we have in quantum mechanics/superstring theory *the* final theory of science, then you may be entitled to say that all things are uncertain. However, even under this assumption there are other interpretations of quantum mechanical phenomenon than the "particles are both waves and particles"-explanation, which indeed imply randomness. Some of these interpretations *are* deterministic, yet the factors that would allow us to predict are not directly observable to us. (For one - excellent, I might add - read on such a theory, see David Deutsch "The Fabric of Reality".)
3: The pinhole experiment is covered in Deutsch book, and he presents arguments as to why it is not necessarily a random phenomenon, only that we cannot observe all the involved factors, except through the experiment itself."
