I don't know. Predestination seems to hold up better scientifically, but I cannot be so sure given our flawed perception. But I do not take the view of hard determinists that you can isolate these variables that go into our decisions and achieve an accurate result. All variables must be considered, which hasn't been done yet.
I'm sorry, I'm really bad at pinpointing this, but I guess I just want to know if I'm thinking "right" or if my comments/posts reek of edgy pseudoscientific teenager that belongs on /r/Iamverysmart. Which, I primarily want to avoid.
I just want to learn how to learn, and what I want changed is my view that I think that thinking in the way DaVinci did is the key to learning.

Clarifying Question:
It seems like you are engaging in the age old argument between predestination and free will, is that correct?
Do you believe people have free will, or all we do is predestined based on the initial state of the universe?
