Prior to that, I can not accept the fact that a fortune teller, sitting on a old school wooden stool (Pun not intended), burning joss sticks and drinking tea from a red and green phoenix porcelain mug, spreading out poker cards and collecting daily allowances from aunties and the elderly, can actually tell you what Life has installed for you in a short span of half an hour? The idea is just not feasible at all? May be God has indeed given us a choice, a choice to believe such an unbelievable idea or not.
I rather take my chances with Fate. It gives me a choice straight away.

With Fate, you can supposingly chance your life through what you do. That, you are denied in Destiny.
Somehow I feel that the world IS hypocritical, everyone is. But when i mention it here, most likely a thought of "Hey aren't you yourself one too to believe that the world is hypocritical?" flows through one's mind? That's really up to you to decide already. In some ways, people choose to rather ignore that thought, the thought of actually believing that they are hypocritical people and choose to deny that.
Religion is a key to higher living. Fate is a choice. Destiny is a key given to you to a choice.
