Leaving the religious idea aside and coming to philosophy, is a person a machine or an engineer? If one is a machine, then one must go on for years and years and years under a kind of mechanical effect of one's evil actions; if one is a machine then one is not responsible for one's actions. If one is an engineer then one is responsible for one's actions; if one is responsible for one's actions, then one is the master of one's actions and the master of one's destiny. If one is an engineer, then one makes one's destiny as one wishes.
