Well that's an extreme too far. Your life is not predetermined at birth. But our options from moment to moment might be limited by our biology. Some of them are weighted by the circumstances of our births. Every day something that we might have absolutely no control of personally might change the course of our lives for the better or worst. You are you after all. But you are also still just a human being, subject to their quirks, foibles and limitations too. > We just don't have enough knowledge to fast forward the simulation? Well we could simulate a trillion possible outcomes because we're talking a simulation that involves a trillion variables. Which one would definitely occur we could only be sure in hindsight. Maybe just like how computers can't truly generate a random number, we can make it appear virtually random. Maybe freewill is somewhat similar in that regard, that there's quite a bit of freedom in a lot of choices, but overall it's not absolutely free will that we're operating on.
