Sample space(a mathematical concept needed to make fair comparisons)
In probability and statistics, the complete set of all possible outcomes you're considering; for example, the sample space for a coin flip is 'heads' or 'tails'.
omni-theism(Used as the target hypothesis being challenged by probabilistic atheistic arguments)
The belief in the existence of an omni-God (a God possessing all-encompassing attributes such as omnipotence, omniscience, and omnibenevolence)
physicalism(The target position that the knowledge argument is designed to refute)
The thesis that physical theory can in principle account for everything there is to know about the world
