In my opinion it is merely naive and wishful thinking to think that human beings alone have some sort of special gift which allows them to have freedom from the laws pf physics. The human brain is merely a collection of particles, particles that follow paths which can in theory be predicted (only in theory though), after all.

I don't know about 'fate' though. 'Fate' has connotations with me as some sort of supernatural mysterious force. In reality though, I think it's just physics.
