    Not in the slightest. I do think our species naturally tries to find order and meaning where there is none, for our own survival.

    Even if you think about all the amazing things in the world take dinosaurs for example, they were pretty amazing creatures and still to this day some creatures exsist from that by gone era
    I mean, how did they suddenly pop up ? Then man just appeared on the planet, from where though? Lol I find this planet amazing sometimes

    honestly, i think fate is like a Nostrodomus prediction or horoscopes. People take what happened and retrofit it into the vague statement. You can always point to a series of actions and decisions that brought you to where you were. it's easy to then call that "fate."

    Maybe that's the problem I don't think I have the mind to really get to grips with evolution
    I'm just not very scientific and maths and all that scare me to death I have no idea where to start
    But I was raised a spiritualist so that's maybe where my thinking comes from

    Lol dinosaurs did not just "pop up" man did not just "appear". Do you think the a guy in a shirt just walked out of the primordial soup?

    Honestly, have a little read about evolution and the history of man. It will do wonders for you.

    I'm going to pray for you. #blessed #tooblessedtobestressed #jehovah

    That's like saying you don't believe in gravity because you don't understand the theory of relativity.

    Nah, I use to believe when things would just happen, like meeting someone in an odd way, or having someone from my past, return. Those situations ended poorly also, so I know it was juts life happening and nothing to do with a mythical "fate"...

    Two days visiting the boards after a break and I still see the same problem.
    Also my view is I believe in the universe leads me down my paths. And that's all I will say about that. Oh, and to each their own beliefs and every person should respect that.
