Even if Free Will isn't real, we're still the master of our own choices regardless, so we might as well make good choices.

The choice to make good choices is yet another choice we're not really in direct control over. Your choice to believe that is based upon your genetics and
upbringing, neither of which you had any control over. We can't control the past, there's no denying that. And we base everything on our previous
experiences. So really, whatever we want, need and choose, it's all already written down.
And if someone chooses to somehow decide that because of this that they may laze about and assume that everything will happen for them they're kidding themselves. I don't believe in Destiny in the sense that if something's going to happen it will happen regardless of what you do. That's stupid. I'm saying that you'll only ever do one thing in any given situation. Ultimately it doesn't really have an impact on anything. People are still going to do their own thing, and my beliefs don't change what I do or what anyone else does. Not everyone believes what I believe, but my beliefs do not require that they do. That's how I roll. *semi-arbitrary hand-motions symbolizing commitment to the statement*
