Problem of Evil
By Marvel Divinagracia
Fate is the development of events beyond a person's control, regarded as determined by a supernatural power. While will refers to a property of the mind, and an attribute of acts intentionally committed. Actions made according to a person's will are called willing or voluntary. One of the recurring questions is the question of "free will", and the related but more general notion of fate, which asks how will can be truly free if the actions of people have natural or divine causes which determine them, but which are not really under the control of people. The question is directly connected to discussions of what Freedom is, and also the "problem of evil", because it brings into question whether people really cause their own acts. Fate and Will, two different forces. What if these two powers will oppose each other? Fate vs. Will
Are people truly responsible for their actions? This question has puzzled humanity throughout history. Over the centuries, people have pondered the influence of divine or diabolical power, environment, genetics, even entertainment, as determining how free any individual is in making moral choices. The ancient Greeks acknowledged the role of Fate as a reality outside the individual that shaped and determined human life.
Best example of the Fate vs. Will conflict is the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet. They could see that their life together was not going the way they wanted, because Romeo and Juliet wanted to marry each other but there were many barriers between them. Both Romeo and Juliet had many failed attempts in their efforts to trick fate out of what was ultimately going to happen to them both. We can see how their choices brought them to their death. It seems that Romeo and Juliet’s lives were controlled by fate up to the very end. Both of them made what turned out to be bad decisions and ultimately destroyed both of their lives. In the end, fate had its way.
Indeed, fate is the part of life
