Is it something that is in the physical matter of the universe, the rule of cause and effect? For instance, we know that whenever oxygen and hydrogen are chemically blended together water is always the outcome, or that the presence of the Sun is the sole and certain cause of the life on earth.
Or, is destiny the will of God, the cause of all causes, whose will is preordained in form of everything. We might be free to some extent, but never out of His will.
We see that the more highly developed are the human systems the less likely it is for them to contain elements of uncertainty. In highly developed societies, for instance, people are more likely to live well-structured lives with all protocols, procedures, methods, measures and schedules of operation well implemented for them to ensure a certain degree of quality in life.
In short, is destiny the rule of a godless universe that we should investigate? Or is it the Will of God that we should seek and then faithfully accept?
