"一個人的命運是一連串複雜關係的因果累積,而自由意志就是其中的一個因,對命運而言是一定有影響的。
人生未到最後仍然未可知,因為要加入自己和別人的自由意志,再承受環境,前人等留下的果,才能建構出一個人的命運,而這中間有許許多多的變數。"

很好.

但我有這個思考:

世事是一連串不斷地發生,"因"的終點與"果"的起點實不能被界定.

但實際上則未必.例如吸煙令患肺癌的機會提高.吸煙是可明顯界定的因,肺癌是可明顯界定的果.這個例子也證明了冰冰的理論:吸煙與否是個人的意志決定,但個人意志決定了不吸也可能被迫吸"二手煙".個人意志決定了不吸只是去除一個因,不就等如絕對不可能患肺癌,因為那個果也有其他的因可導致(例如家族遺傳易患癌症).
