Fatalism
What a dreadful disease is fatalism! If people do not submit to the fantasy of a God, they submit themselves to what is "natural", to genetics, and a biological determinism, or to the supposed genius of scientists and their technology.
Fatalism is a wish to submit to a preconceived idea of what the future holds. Both Hegel and Marx were fatalists when they fell into the trap of defining dogmatic laws of Nature that, in their minds, could never be transgressed. Their "laws" were of course just wishful thinking on their part. All such futile behaviour is a result of the ego's vain search for meaning and purpose. It is better to be rid of the ego than lose all dignity.
