CMV: Free will is an illusion and your entire existence and sum of experience was inevitable.

Fate is real.  Destiny is real.  Things happen for a reason, but the reason has nothing to do with luck, chance, or anything supernatural.

My position is based on this:  a 100&#37; accurate predictive model is possible if all variables,  variable values, and variable interaction behavior are known.

A very basic predictive model: drop a 1" bouncy ball from 10" above a ceramic tile and measure how high it will bounce back.  For this example, the ball bounced back to the height of 8".  You would then formulate your next hypothesis based on that observation: If we drop the ball from 12" the bounce will reach 10".  You drop the ball and indeed it bounces back 10".  Conduct this numerous times and eventually you can pretty accurately predict the outcome.  

This model will not be 100&#37; accurate if not all variables can or will be accounted for: the accuracy of the measurement tools, changes in barometric pressure, changes in temperature, etc.   However, if you could account for every single variable \(currently known and unknown\) with 100&#37; accuracy a predictive model could be developed that would be infinitely accurate.

Let's roll back to the very instant the "big bang" started. \(I selected the "big bang" as it is a theoretical moment familiar to most\).  If all variables, variable values, and variable interaction behavior could be known, then the exact state of a one\-second old universe could be predicted.  Extrapolate this all the way to this very moment that you are reading the last word in this sentence.  

Tomorrow, the car directly in front of you is struck by a piece of lumber that fell from the truck in front of it resulting in the driver being severely injured.  The car ended up in front of you because it arrived one second before you at the previous intersection.  

The car arrived one second before you because you woke up a second late because you did not sleep well because you argued with your spouse because she forgot to pick up your prescription because she had a meeting run late because her boss had a surprise phone call from a friend that just so happened to be in the area because they were in town for a conference because.......... 

OMG!  What if I ended up in front of that person and I got the lumber to the face?  OMG!  The divine entity of my choosing intervened and made me wake up one second late!  OMG!  I am sooooo lucky!  

There was no divine intervention, it has nothing to do with luck or chance.  The reason it was the car in front of you and not you is because of all the variables, variable values, and variable interactions that occurred up until that very moment. 

This same process of rewinding events could be applied to the driver who was injured, the person who strapped down the lumber, the person who designed the tolerance of the strap, the driving speed, the wind resistance, etc.  It all goes back to a single event.

You, your "soul" or being, are a product of a genetic configuration and your environment.  Your genetic configuration and how your body develops is a product of countless reproductive events that occurred because of all the variables, variable values, and variable interactions that occurred prior to each of those previous events.  

Your environment is the result of countless variables, variable values, and variable interactions: ground radiation, stress level, the chemical composition of your water, cloud cover, mother's smoking habits while you were in the womb, state of the economy, etc.  Your environment can alter genetics, impact your development, impact the development of your offspring, impact the development of your neo\-cortex that impacts decision making that impacts behavior.

Every moment and every one of your "decisions" is a product of the countless variables \(environment, genetic configuration\), variable values, and variable interactions that previously occurred.  Your actions, thoughts, friendships, favorite food, career choice, vices, were inevitable and could be predicted.  

Ultimately, you are soooo predictable.

Quantum theory disagrees with determinism. If our current understanding of quantum mechanics is true, then there exists true randomness in the world. The second law of thermodynamics states that entropy always increases over time, this leads to an increase in information in the universe over time. How does that information spontaneously form? Randomness.
