We are completely free to make any and every decision, but our outcomes are entirely preconceived, even if at random, by the circumstances and the parameters. Just as we are free as 4 dimensional beings to move our hands in time and space, but at the same time fundamental forces such as gravity entirely determine the parameters of every infinitely possible movement..

The Church teaches similar, but replaces gravity with God

but neo can break the rules of the game altogether, right brother morpheus?
