No.
If it's destiny, none of us can complain about anything. After all, that is how things are supposed to be under destiny.
If it's destiny, no one should bother trying. Anything that should be, will be and any effort to try is just foolishness. Anything that shouldn't be, won't be.
Any child who is being physically or sexually assaulted today as I write this should accept it as their destiny. This how things were supposed to turn out for them.
This is why I don't accept philosophical and religious perspectives of destiny.

destiny is the manifestation of the human desire to deny personal responsibility for their life and actions. It is a way of escaping the reality of the responsibility that each person has to make their own life as they see fit.

Not at all. I believe that each person is the "captain of their own ship," the "director of their own play."
Except for random chance - which affects everyone - we are all in charge of our own futures.

No, it's nonsense.
