I had a brief discussion with a predeterminist once. “Imagine a guy’s riding a bike down a slope toward a high cliff’s edge. According to you, he shouldn’t stop, because if it’s not his time he can’t possibly die going off that cliff.”“I know this much,” she said. “If it is his time, it ain’t gon’ do him no good to stop the bike.”
there’s an extra twist to the theory: that this universe is the simulation of humans ( or something related)in the remote future. They for example wanted to see what the universe was like for their ancestors, so they created this world, put “people” in it and started the program to see how they evolved from us. Or something like that.Excuse me, I feel a headache coming…..
