I'm personally very much against such thought (mostly in a weberian sense, if you know what I mean). I mean, if free will doesn't exist, how can I be able to do something completely random (if you don't count things like gravity etc. as physical laws restricting us, because surely they do restrict us, but that is not what I mean). If I see it correct, fate would mean that everything would be causal.
