Do you believe in fate/destiny?
I don’t believe in the religious concept of fate/destiny where the greek gods have decided what will happen in my life.
However, things are still predetermined to happen as they do because I cannot control my body nor my desires.
This is especially relevant today for example. I am sick and have not been able to breathe well enough to sleep well. I also had to call into work because I was too sick.
I spent a long time recording podcasts explaining the illusion of free will back when I was Executive Producer of the Free Will, Science, and Religion podcast. This prompt about destiny reminded me of those days.
