hmmm.... I'm in a deep state of contemplation now. This question just arose in my mind. Is life predestined or do we control our own fate? It could go both ways. Someone could say that a higher being has set out a path for us.... or someone could say that we control our own destinies... Its a rather complicated subject.

I think we are the creators of our own destiny,not god.I mean i believe in him but he doesn't control me.I could easily walk and go have sex with someone who i knew had aids and change my whole life on my own.So yeah I think we control our own destiny/fate [which ever you wanna call it].

Exactly, hence free will but he does give you choices you could make in hopes you'll make the right one kinda like most parents do  QUOTE(Arjuna Capulong @ Mar 22 2007, 3:42 PM) We can control some minute thing such as what we're going to wear to school tomorrow, where to spend summer break, and things like that, but we are still not capable of control the bigger things such as scientific laws, death, and taxes. VERY true, some things are just unchangable. |

O______O i'm not a parent . . . if that was you were calling me xD.But i think the more free will is acknowledged the more it will be believed that our destinies are not predestined but rather changable.Because if the big man is giving us choices then,would'nt that be the same as giving us the power to CHANGE our own destinies?So then how would fate be predestined?I wonder  .I'm not quite sure of what i even just said right now xD
