Is life mapped out for us

"The future's not set. There's no fate but what we make for ourselves." The saviour of mankind from the machines said that. If you choose to listen to a German with a daft haircut be my guest. The randomness of life is what keeps us in awe.
 
no, because any action I now take makes it demonstrably untrue. It's consequence simple as.
What if every action you make is already mapped out and every consequence already mapped out?

Look, I don't need to change your mind and I am happy for you to believe what on earth you like. But you just repeating no you're wrong, doesn't make you right. If you're interested in physics and want to learn more, then there's plenty of info out there, but if not, perfectly fine. I'll say no more.

What he said. No plan. If there was, who is he/she/it? And most importantly why would it bother.

People like patterns and attribute meaning to them. It was meant to happen. We were meant to meet etc.

You weren't, you did, it was great and you convince yourselves it was destiny.

What about all the meetings you have that nothing significant happens ?

We forget them and focus in the lives that fit our belief.

Random and brilliant.

it isn't. Simple as, and if you disagree, stop bleating on in the EU referendum thread and just accept Brexit as it's just "the way it's meant to be".

You're wrong simple as. I didn't say anything about the way anything is meant to be. Merely that whatever will be will be. Like if Brexit gets thrown out. Now stop being so fucking rude and stop bleating yourself. To use your words, you're tedious. Fucking tedious in fact. I've been patient and polite and e fucking nuff. So you don't agree. Who cares. You can tell me you're wrong for 24 hours. It's still not true.

It doesn't need a plan to be mapped out mate. You throw a pack of cards on the floor and it's all random but if you cover your eyes so you can only see 10 cards, it doesn't mean the other cards are not there. They are, just like the future is already "there", but we just cannot see it yet.

This is fate, I can see you pair getting hitched!

Conversely it could be argued that life being mapped out is a life we have no control over therefore is devoid of meaning.
