    Some people want to discover the future, others want to create it for themselves. I would say 100-200 years ago people created their futures more than now. Everybody is just sitting around watching tv and playing on the computer these days, not really thinking whats important in life. Ultimatly life is about helping your fellow man/women. Now a days people are just helping themselves and lost touch with what matters.
    but my question falls more with the idea of the future being Planned already, or with us creating it with choices. Maybe I miss worded the question.

    Sorry, I just took my sleeping pill my doc gave me and feeling a little loopy and I got carried away. We create it with choices. Good or bad. I believe in God so I believe the fate of the world has been decided as a whole. Jesus new he was going to die on the cross, and each choice he made lead him to that fate. So as individuals(ms) we can create our own future. As a whole I think its been decided for us. My pill is really kicking in so I hope this makes sense, if not ask me the same question tomorrow.

    Some of both obviously. You can't change where you were born or who you were born to, but after that, your input can have an impact. :)

    Hmmm good question.... I liked how marty disappeared in the photo each time he changed something...so I'm gonna lean towards the Back to the future version. it goes along with a set out plan thought.

    Only problem with that set up, is that Old Biff could never have returned the time machine to the future where Marty and Doc were fixing Marty's kids' future as he would have been travelling within the Paradoxical tangent of time that he created when he handed the Grey's Sports Almanac to his younger self, thereby not allowing the rest of the movie to take place... Though I think that's more to do with shoddy writing than real timescape physicality...

    Sorry... I digress...


    Life is what you make it... at least that's what people tell me.
    "this one, anytime I say love if you wanna say love, uh, say it, and if you say it you might as well say it loud, and if you don't feel like sayin' it, don't say it, but if you feel it, certainly say it..."

    NOTE: Everything I write in the P,P&M section are intended to be songs, not poetry.

    I watched all three in the last two days because, as my long weekend thread states, I've been having trouble getting my hands on the new Indy movie, and these movies are in the same realm: Iconically directed classics... (I don't have the old Indy movies on DVD)

    (That's the last post from me, since I'm not adding to the discussion. Sorry)

    the future doesnt exist. cause where we are is always the NOW, not ever the future.
