hmmm a strange thing but its a type of religion you see fate is an essence that rules our life but there are those who have no fate and thus take on someones so they can survive a little bit longer for your fate is your death

Fate isnt just death. Fate is everything and you decide your fate with every single decision you ever make. Fate is more than death.

Fate is something that can tear you away from your most precious love, kill your family, and destroy your life if you beleive too much. You will be wrapped around the fact that every move you make is planned, that you won't realize that you're the one making the issue in the first place. Fate is cruel when it decides to smash you. I know, I had fate ruin me once, and it will not happen again. My suggestion is to not beleive in it too much, it will erode your mind of its sanity.

I know I speak in cryptics, what do you want from me??

That unfortunate person may believe that, but then again they are too gullible to totally believe in it anyways. Like I said,

That's all there is too it. I realize that people want to think fate is controlling every aspect of their puny lives, but that doesn't make it true. It's also called being paranoid.

You don't have to listen to me...

Fate is an attempt to assign a face to the random mercilessness of the universe. It doesn't exist as something that is deciding what happens to you and those around you.

...and it kills kittens every time you believe in it... no, seriously, relax with that statement because that's not always true!

Fate is described by Answers.com as:

"The supposed force, principle, or power that predetermines events."

Now, take a look around your life, do you literally see this force? Does it have a color, does it have texture of heat or light? The correct answer should be no, you do not actually see this force called "fate". There is absolutely no evidence in this force's existence because it doesn't exist.

Now, what else don't we see that we believe in? we could believe in gods, space and light being matter, we could believe in fire-breathing dragons, we could even believe in alternate dimensions. Do these things affect us in any way? Does the actual information, the knowing that something like this exists, change something like what you have for breakfast in the morning (for example)?

If not, then I wouldn't care about this "fate" thing if I were you... If yes, then you need to seek help.

Klotho (Clotho), Lakhesis (Lachesis) and Atropos.

Klotho spins the thread of life, Lakhesis determines the length of the thread and Atropos cuts the thread when the proper time has come for death.

This is where the term Fate came from. However the fates and fate itself has nothing to do with your actual decisions that you make. Rather they were simply to determine when you were born and when you would die. All that is in between is what you make of it.

There is no mystical force that is deciding our lives for us. People just want something to blame when things go bad.

Fate as in everything I choose is predestined to happen? No. Fate causes way too many problems in things like theodicy. But there is some fate, like the families we were born into, the race we are, etc.
