Fate vs. Free Will 11th of January 2013 Throughout the ages‚ it has been believed that fate has the power to forge one’s destiny. By some uncontrollable force‚ the outcome of a person’s choices is controlled by the way in which they are destined to occur.

One question that seemed to pop into my head through out this play was whether individuals were victims of

the intense passion that springs up at first sight between Romeo and Juliet. Love in Romeo and Juliet is a brutal‚ powerful emotion that captures individuals and catapults them against their world‚ and‚ at times‚ against themselves. The play‚ rather than presenting a specific statement of love‚ portrays the chaos and passion of being in love‚ combining the themes of love‚ passion‚ family‚ and violence‚ and how they conflict with each other.

Fate versus freewill is a baffling subject matter. Many believe in fate; fate is one’s destiny. Their freewill is what gets them there. Some may say that there is only fate or only freewill‚ but the play Oedipus demonstrates a case of both fate and freewill. The mystery that is fate versus freewill is what drives Oedipus.

Shakespeare’s message in Macbeth is that fate is unavoidable and attempting to evade fate is impossible. Macbeth is told by the witches that he will gain power‚ but he is fated to lose that power. In Macbeth‚ the witches represent fate‚ which is shown when they use their magical powers to manipulate the world in order to get what they desire.

Pangloss and Martin: Fate and Reality As far as my simple self could deduce from Voltaire’s Candide‚ Pangloss and Martin are as different as they are wise when it comes to the brightness or‚ in Martin’s case‚ the darkness with which they view the world. Pangloss is evidently a man of knowing and has put much thought into his philosophy that “everything is for the best in the physical as well as the moral universe and nothing could be otherwise…”Quite the optimist‚ he went about life accepting

punishment retaliates an alarming effect to society’s safety. I strongly affirm with my resounding agreement to the establishment of capital punishment to eradicate the increasing occurrences of such heinous crimes. Primarily speaking‚ the necessity of death penalty has been the prolonged clamour of victims’ immediate family and relatives of these predators who demoralize and disrespect the life of their preys. A plea for justice has always been the battle cry of these innocent victims who impatiently
