| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Fatalism, as an ideology, is rooted is vested interests of the rulers, priests and lawgivers, who won the game of power by fanning man's worst beliefs. These superstitions assumed different forms in different regions and ages and went on multiplying. Although man refused to be daunted by the verdicts of fate, scriptures and priest craft did their utmost to break his inherent pride of manhood through the centuries. With the enhancement of man's knowledge, much of what formerly designated as fate is now known differently and is to some extent controlled by man. |
