Do you believe as neji did that peoples lives are predetermined and they can't stop fate or do you think like naruto does that people's choices affect where they end up and what happens to them?

Fate is an excuse for people who fail.

I believe in free will.

Free will. Everything you do affects your future. Just focus on what you do now.

Fate in real life.

Free will in fiction.

I still say Neji was right the moment Naruto was revealed to be the child of the prophecy.

people might hate me for bringing science but i'm still gonna do it.

according to clasical physics, if you know the location and velocity of every atom in the universe, you can predict the future but calculating how the atoms move and interact using the laws of physics. however in quantum mechanics theres something called the heisenberg principle of uncertenity that clearly states that you can know the location of an atom or the velocity of it, but never both at the same time. meaning that predicting the future is impossible, the laws of physics actully claim by that that YOU CAN'T KNOW EVERYTHING, you can always be wrong.

You're born with free-will. However, there are some things that fate decides imo.

You have free-will, but you can't escape the laws of the world.
Your fate is already determined, but how do you know what the future holds? Your attitude to either wanting to make a difference or playing the 'blame game' will determine your fate.

Free will.
Example: You see a stone you grab it and throw it at a car , you broke the window.
-It wasn't your fate , you chose to pick up the stone you could of walked passed it.

I hate thinking that life is predetermined. That means I'm lazy by design, not by choice xd
