Bad thing happened = The universe made it happen, not your fault

Forgetting to do something = Well there’s nothing I can do, my brain chemicals are dictated by the laws of physics

Like if I don’t keep using Determism as an explantion, my brain just 🤯💀…

    Explanation is not excuse. It doesn’t matter wether they did a bad thing because they wanted to or their genes compelled them do. The outcome is still the same.

    However, that doesn’t make it a bad idea. Accepting the fact that we live in a deterministic universe entirely dismantles the foundation from emotions like hate and replaces it with compassion. I don’t like every person I meet but I don’t hate anyone nor I blame anyone for what they are - they didn’t have a say in it.
