Philosopher Stephen Toulmin traces the evolution of the concept of fatalism. In the modern world, Professor Toulmin explains, the term is often used to express the feeling that people don't have control over what they do or what happens to them. In antiquity, as well as during the Middle Ages, this idea was based on the notion of pre-destination, and "...God's foreknowledge of everything we were going to do."
