Random chance exists...
Therefore strict determinism(fatalism) cannot. Free will does not exist. One only wills what they know. Human perspective is determined by innate traits combined with individual life experience that contains the element of pure random chance. Therefore, the will cannot be free from those influences. If the will is not completely free, then it is not free. |

Human perspective is determined by innate traits combined with individual life experience that contains the element of pure random chance. Therefore, the will cannot be free from those influences. If the will is not completely free, then it is not free. Random chance does not exist. The exercise of the will is what causes the appearance of randomness. Because of the will, strict determinism(fatalism) does not exit. The Will is either week or strong, but it is always "free." |

I don't like to support the idea that something determines that someone will have a better life than someone else. That's the whole reason I'm an atheist.

I believe we create our own destiny as we go along...What we create for ourselves today, determines our tomorrow...So our destiny is being created with each and every breath and thought we make, and every step we take...

Do you believe in destiny ? No. Purpose, and intent? Yes. Destiny is to me, being a puppet to a puppeteer. Purpose and intent, is ownership and responsibility. |
