What are your viewpoints on fate, signs and destiny?

Unheard Cry · 07-31-2010, 04:17 AM

Ok, so this is my first post on this site. I have recently been researching satanism from this site however and have been very interested in some of the topics. I do have one question that relates to me and my life that I dont believe I saw through the threads(I didnt look REALLY hard so forgive me if someone has asked this before, i really just wanted my own thread

).
Anyways, I was just wondering what your viewpoints on fate, signs and destiny are. Do you believe in them? If not, why? I might be confusing the christian god's "plan" with this but I really am curious if Satan also has a predetermined course of action that he lays out before us and gives us signs that might lead us to him. If I am offending anyone in any way, shape, or form, please realize this is not my intent. The only way I will learn is by asking these questions.

P.s. This little dancing thing on the lower right hand side gets kinda annoying when you are trying to concentrate lol.

My opinion is fate is the same for everybody, sooner or later we reach perfection, our current life is just what we need to experience in order to move in that direction.

Beyond that general outline I don't put much stock in fate/destiny whatever, I can't allow worrying over fate to dictate my actions.

Hard one to answer. But I do think things happen for a reason. As for who or what it is that is behind it all, I don't know.

Ok, thank you guys. I was just curious but I did kinda have an idea of what you guys would say

. Destiny isnt really my major concern, its more of the signs, because Ive felt like I have encountered numerous signs that I could not contemplate at the age they passed me by. Well thank you guys for the info, this really is a great site

The impression I'm getting is that every one of us has an ultimate destiny, that being our ascention to godhood. But I think we're given complete freedom in how to achieve that end.

I think destiny kind of works like a shopping list. We set these goals before we incarnate like, "Deal with bad breakup" "Take (anything) lessons" "Break a leg", and how ever we finish this list (whether we leave stuff out or even add to it) is completely up to us during our time of incarnation.

It constantly astounds me how many ideas in Satanism correspond to ideas in those Sylvia Browne books my mom used to read and I used to flip through... I could list a bunch but I'm tired and I need sleep... I might come back to this idea later though.

I would not be the least bit surprised. Anyone who thinks long and hard enough I am sure would reach to the same possible conclusions.
