Cause and Effect versus Fate and Destiny

A young man sees a palm reader in order to find what his future holds. The dark and mysterious turbaned figure looks cross-eyed at the young man's hand and croaks, "You will die by water!" Well, that is enough for this young man (his great grandmother was a palm reader herself). Though he lives on the western coast of the United States, he moves to a place in Utah, away from any rivers, streams, or lakes. Though a talented swimmer, he stays away from any accessible pools. He even refuses taking baths or showers, thinking of possible water related accidents that may spell his death. His life develops into a paranoid evasion of all possible contact with water. But, he still must consume water to live. So one day at his home, slouched over a bowl of chicken-noodle soup, he is struck on the head by a cookie jar, knocked off the refrigerator by his cat (a black cat, naturally). Rendered unconscious, his head falls directly into his soup, and he drowns!

This young man’s death was inevitable, a product of fate. Although he was lucky enough to find the cause of his eventual demise, he could not prevent it. Many would read this
