What determines the fate of each individual?

Even before a baby is born things are decided about them due to their DNA and the time they had in the mother's womb. Early in the pregnancy I had in 2006 going into 2007 my son developed spina bifida and hydrocephalus. It made his development slower than the average child. I think that in life good or bad luck can happen in our lives. Our lives can as we move through different ages. I don't think that everything is predetermined from the beginning of time. Sometimes events in life happen that just came about I think.

do you believe that we are only a creation? if yes, I admire your opinion...we are only a creation,being made by more supreme than us, GOD. Like an invention of any materials we couldnt know its purpose unless we ask first its inventor,right? we are also a creation so to know our purpose, we should ask our creator,... but how can we ask Him,?...He had given us the instruction manual of how to make our life works and for Whom should it be...the Bible...there nothing to loose if we believe and thats how we determine our faith..Godbless you!

I believe that a person faces situations with multiple outcomes and each has it's consequences upon the future. In Western culture, especially within the Bible, there is a hint that repercussions of actions has a bearing on the future as It mentions for children to respect their parents so that there days are long and plentiful. I'm not a Christian but more spiritual than any thing else. I don't believe having a religion makes a person a better person. I believe that being religious within the religion makes a person a better person. I do believe in God and Jesus is is one of the people on Earth that I admire the most. Whether or not a person believe in His Supreme Being status, He truly did change the world.
