If somebody could see far into the future, in that case, does it mean that the future is predetermined?

and that we're just walking a predetermined path? or do we still get to change our destiny, choose from different paths, and only the end result will the predetermined one?

That would be the logical inference and of course is if that were true there would necessarily be some entity that was predetermining the future. But as the great Yoda has said, The Dark Side clouds everything. Impossible to see, the future is.'

@TheConstantGardener that's the scary part and the main reason I asked the Q, that unknowingly we'd just be walking a set in stone path.

@Dan193 It's beyond comprehension so I don't think about it. The opposite of Existentialism.

I think the older one gets the more one realizes that nothing is certain. Anything can change depending on what you do or do not do or what other people do or don't do.
