'Normal' is still created by some random person on earth. It's never a reliable source. They don't start off with accurate information so that people can change it freely whenever they want, trust me

There are differences in how reliable the sources are though, that's the only thing I have against wikipedia... (You can choose to build something from a master craftsman's instructions, or you can take instructions from someone who's never built anything in their life.) It's basically the same thing with taking in information you read. Finding the source of the information to determine how reliable it is, is crucial to whether it's fact or myth.

Its not some kids writing these documents. Its well qualified professors doing this.

Code: Fate: something that unavoidably befalls a person
So where does fate come from? Please tell me your opinion, we have the ability to make choices, so does fate come in when we didn't have the ability to makes choices?

You don't understand what fate is from what I can tell. You can make choices, but whether you do or not, fate can still exist no matter what choice you make.
No one can determine where fate comes from, but that doesn't mean that it has to come from God.

I see buddy, thanks for clearing that up for me, so do you think fate just happens?

Please read through the thread instead of asking me questions. A whole discussion about it has already been cleared up from both sides of the debate. Try taking the time yourself to see what others think instead of using up my time to re-state what has already been covered in this thread. It would be like going around in circles, which isn't the purpose of a debate. You should start reading threads more carefully from what i've seen.

Okay, I will review through the thread & come back here to debate on a part that hasn't been covered.

Kk, guys this weeks debate is coming to a close. So as of now just brain storm next week topic. I will make the thread for official suggestions tomorrow, but as for today just say anything that you still want to say on this topic and suggest a couple things.
My review of beta week 1:
Well this weeks beta turned out amazing. I mean i am really impresses with this. Helpfully omni liked the idea and will make an official sticky for it. If not we will keep doing this as its extremely fun. So we had 5 pages and pretty on topic discussion. I must say can't wait for week two. Hope to see you guys there again. Also i have to write my essay to night and i plan on posting that here before i go to bed.
