What is the difference between a believer in predestination and a fatalist?
In Christianity, predestination is a specific theological concept developed by French theologian John Calvin (1509-1564). It means that God has predetermined which people will go to heaven and which people will go to hell when they die, and there is no action or belief on the part of humans that can change this predetermination. Fatalism is a more general term not specific to any faith or belief system.
