Destiny is a reality.

I don't buy into it myself.I believe (coming from a Christian's perspective) that the only person who is actually that mature is Jesus Himself, and God, if you consider Him to be a "person."In other words, there are only two Roosters in the Universe. God and Jesus.

I too believe in destiny, for everybody and everything.....






....as determined by the initial conditions of their constituent particles and the least action principle up to quantum mechanical fluctuations.

Provided that we still hold them accountable for their actions......but then, that holding to account also is pre-determined, at the level you're talking about - so that's ok :-)

Asking questions is a sign of ignorance? surely that's the way to end ignorance
(Oh, and it's a long time since I've been called "Youthful".. thanksl") from this I take it you know your destiny? care to share? ah, I see, so it's totally subjective and unverifiable. bad examples. both of these are easily answerable. bingo!

I think this is good, you know what you believe, and you're moving in that direction.
I think this is a healthy aspect for you.My point is that this is a healthy aspect for you.
There's nothing that points to this as an objectively better way to go over any other possible path.Not all humans are the same. Perhaps Tempe's "former" position is better for someone else... not believing in God but instead looking around us and understanding the environment we can interact with.I only ask that you allow others the same freedom that's working so well for you... to use their own best judgment of self-reflection to choose whatever path is best for them.If you simply say that your choice is best for you, you will find a lot of support.
If you try to move into the territory of claiming that your choice is best for other people as well... you'll need some actual, objective evidence to back that up. Your word or say-so just isn't good enough for other people, and it shouldn't be... that would be equivalent to them taking your path just because you said so instead of using self-reflection in order to find the path that best aligns with who they are on the inside. Which we know has a high likelihood of leaving them "unfulfilled."

Sometimes true, often false. *cough* Third Reich *cough* Been there, done that, got the T-shirt, moved on.(There's a trap door in the ceiling. When you climb up to that level of enlightenment you'll see how empty "True Christianity" is.)

Every person who is alive does have a destiny, and that destiny is death.
