Predestination- The theory that all the events are preordained.
People argue that the future is not set in stone. But isn't the future an objective view? Our future is someones history. Our history was someones future. So is our future set in stone? Yes and no. It all depends who is looking at your life, from what angle and from what time.
Every religion has many different views on the subject matter. There is not one stead fast belief. Some Buddhists believe that we are meant to experience some events but the times in between are completely our own. One Jewish belief is that " Everything is predetermined but freedom of will is given". Some argue that if predestination is real then free will is an illusion. Most nonindulgent sects of religious groups believe that any attempt to explain or comprehend predestination is detrimental and offensive to god. Perhaps in some degree it is a mockery of god but what is the point of having a superior intellect if we are not going to use and apply it? Since our dawn of awakening we have been trying to explain everything in our universe. What makes certain things taboo? Nothing except scared individuals with closed minds.
The attempt to explain, prove, or even test predestination is basically a futile effort, along with finding god, the soul, and an afterlife. There is such a thing as a leap of faith. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. People will continue to theorize on the subject but finding an answer is about just as improbable as discovering the existence of god. Its just not possible to test predestination theories until we can move through time at our own free will. On the other hand it is in our nature to try to explain things well out of our reach.
