Just a interesting question to think about. This can involve relationships with other people, our interests, political views, academic major choice, job, etc etc. So, does destiny determine who we are and what we do or do we determine our destiny? And if most of our lives are pre determined, there's two ways to look at it. One is a religious/spiritual approach to it that we are predestined by an outside force. Or are we predestined by our genetic makeup? Meaning from birth, our brain is made a certain way and that we are predestined to how we think about and react to questions or information given to us. Meaning for example, before you knew about politics, hypothetically you already had a opinion. When you grew older and learned about politics , your brain reacted to it an made an opinion. Or from learning about politics, caused you to have an opinion? So I guess what I'm getting at, are we born a blank slate as dar as our opinions and actions or are we predestined tp act a certain way or have a certain opinion after learning something new? Sorry if this is a confusing, its a confusing concept.

Thanks
