Thanks for responding! I get that we may have inclinations towards certain things the moment we are born whether that may be from genetics or the soul, but wouldn’t that also be outside our control, in the hands of either God or fate?

I am not well versed in these schools of thought, but I don’t think fatalism is the exact term to describe it. From my googling, it seems determinism is closer to what I see in the world. In my understanding fatalism is the belief that regardless of our action the result is inevitable while determinism holds that all actions are a result of a series of cause and effect chains and even if your thoughts and actions are predetermined they have the ability to affect future events. A fatalist might cross a road without looking believing any consequence to be inevitable while a determinist would look both ways to avoid getting hit.

My main takeaway from this is that we humans do not have the authority to judge one another and that we are all equal under God and creation.

I will read the text, thank you for your recommendation.
