There is this theory in philosopy that an object has all the properties it will ever have at the time of creation. For instance if a desk is built in 1960 and in 1965 it has a big letter T scratched into it, theory says that when the desk was made, it already had the property of the scratched T in it. Wonder how this applies to people and births, etc?

that sounds dumber than the original post

sounds like predestination. Everything that is gonna happen is already set in stone.
