no. God does predetermine certain things but the power of freewill governs us for the most part.
I believe its a mixture of destiny and free choice. Your choices determine your own path and certain events are spurred from those choices.
Destiny are things God put into place to either steer us away from a certain path or things that must come to pass in order for life to exist as it does.
To say that God knows everything that's going to happen, necessarily implies a deterministic model of reality, which is of course inconsistent with the idea of apodictic free will.
But then what's the alternative? ...nondeterminism, aka randomness. If the nature of reality is fundamentally nondeterministic, then that also isn't consistent with the idea of apodictic free will.
So the real problem in this case is not the idea of omnipotence, but the idea of apodictic free will, which fails regardless of any gods.
Fau... love your answer!!!
And I believe that Fate... is Satans pathway for us. You proved it, by saying that person was "Fated " to marry ... his mother... Yuck.
I think destiny is Gods path. He predistines us to be saved. Means that he has made everything possible for us to receive what he has for us. And destiny is the path that takes us there. Destiny does not push, it leads. Fate pushes, So, does Satan. and leaves one no way out. Destiny offers us a choice.



God and fate?
first off let me explane the diffrence between fate and destiny.
Fate is a something that will happen no matter what you do insomuch that Oedipus was fated to marry is mother.
Destiney is the path we are on in life and where it gos. paths can be...
changed but Fate cannot.
to the question. to my understanding Chritanity dosn't believe in fate and dose believe that God gave us free will.
If thats so than its also believed that God knows everything we are going to do before we are born.
if thats so and God is infallible than we have no choise in what we do caues God already knows and he is infallible. Thats Fate is it not?
This question is NOT a "God isn't real thing and heres prof" this is a true question
