This seems more like a philosophical topic but...
Everything does happen for a reason. An unobjectionable reason at that. Because every act is a fact and there is evidence to prove what happens/happened.
In string theory, while contemplating 10 dimensions, there are infinite paths that could be taken, not just 1 linear timeline.
I also do not agree with these kinds of theories however, because We live in 1 timeline. Our choices are finite and while You might say that We are capable of endless possibilities, only 1 of those possibilities executes. We cannot go backwards in our timeline, only forwards.
Science tested this in Entropy. Absolute zero can be approached but never reached. If absolute zero were to be reached, theoretically, matter would be stationary.
If We cannot stop motion, what makes us think We can go into the past?
And if We can go into the past... would the effects of such time travel not have initiated by now?
I do not believe in fate, but I do live it. Destiny on the other hand is about predicting a precise yet complex future... correctly. That, even with today's technology would appear improbable.
