Things don't happen for a Reason, there is somthing that has already been predetermined about your life, you will end up the way you are because of not Choice/Consiquence, but just because your life was written before you knew it.

Why exactly is your life pre-written?

That was my eplanation, not my answer.

if you wanna get dumb with this.... here is what the all mighty knowing dictionary wrote.

  1. The inevitable or necessary fate to which a particular person or thing is destined; one's lot.
  2. A predetermined course of events considered as something beyond human power or control: “Marriage and hanging go by destiny” (Robert Burton).
  3. The power or agency thought to predetermine events: Destiny brought them together.


    Also, if you belive in ouiji board and/or Horoscopes you most likely belive in Destiny.

No problem, Me personally I belive in Consiqunces and luck. 

  • We make a Choice.
  • After the choices made, the consiqunce starts to show
  • Once the consuqence of our action is almost present Luck desides to play a roll
  • After Evaluation of luck, the full consiquence of our Action is right infront of us, or in us.

The dictionary definition only creates more questions.

"Destiny" makes no sense in a vacuum.  If we are talking true determinism, that requires a very specific religious belief to go along with it.  It we are talking Chinese fortune cookie destiny ("you will achieve great things"), there are a variety of religious beliefs that could make that happen.  Different varieties of "destiny" require different underlying beliefs as to the functioning of the universe.

The only things I dislike about "Fortune Cookie" messages is that there to broad, maybe great things WILL Happen but they will be such small doses it didn't matter.

But Belifes/Religion do Start to mix in with it, which I really don't like to discuss because everyone has a diffrent belife. My question is a Yes/No question with a small explination. I don't like when people get Judgemental towards others for a Religious vaule.

Girls tend to believe in destiny.
Guys are like "FORGET THAT I'M HARD I PLAY BY MY OWN RULES I DO WHAT I WANT".

I'm unsure on how trannies feel about the situation. Hades? DaveEllis?

Wow....beyonce has some boobs.



Back to topic: I do not believe your life is planned out. People can say it is planned out, some people say it's not. If i say to you right now i'm going to go run around my house, is that planned? Maybe. There's no way of telling. I hate to get into this, becuase i'm just gonan mumble off about religion and my beliefs. So i'm ending it.
