It has been debated over and over. On one side, they say everything you do and who you are were already design from the moment you were born.On the other hand, they say you choose what to do and who you want to be for there are millions of choices available for you. What are your thoughts? Is it really destiny or your freewill?

For me, it is DESTINY, a child is destined to be born or was raised for a new life after a mother had conceived. During his growing times to adulthood bounded by his family and the environment will be a FREEWILL already because, he has been molded already as to what kind, and opted life he wanted to have. If we think, from when born? is more of FREEWILL then how come there are issues of abortion and contraceptives from unwanted pregnancies? IM sure if it is a FREEWILL then the unborn child might have prevented their mother not to kill them and let them SEE and Live the beauty of life same as those mothers who is really expecting their child to be born. FREEWILL is applicable when an adult person is able to choose and decide for himself, but in case of being BORN? it is more of destiny. HAppy lotting

I believe it is free will. Life is what we make it. We are free to make our choices, but, along with this freedom, comes the responsibility of choosing what is right and pleasing to God. We are exposed to a lot of temptations, but it is our choice as to whether or not we succumb to it. Making the wrong choices results in a hell of a life for us. On the other hand, wise choices make our life happy, fulfilled and peaceful.

I think we trace our destiny but God already knows what wre going be our decisions, so there is no surprises for God,and HE gave freewill so we can choose what we want and make the decisions we think are good for us.

i believe its free will.because certainly you are the one who can control the things that you do, the places you go and people that you meet. lets say if a person were blind does it mean that he is destined to be blind bec he/she was born that way and hence excuse him/herself from the world?no right bec with todays technology that person can get his/her sight

i believe its free will.i am the one who chooses the type of job i want to work at,the kind of person i want to spend my time with and any other aspects.for example if someone is blind does it mean that he/she is destined to be blind so he/she can excuse her self from the world?no right bec certainly she can undergo surgery and with the technology today get her sight back.
