I wonder if knowledge changes the future, meaning when we learn something new, we deviate from the trajectory we were once on? Is that possible? Or are we doomed to continue in the direction we were headed at the time before we learned something? :?
Obviously once you human beings learn how to live in peace with one another, as One, then you will, and did, change your trajectory. And, the main reason you changed your direction is because living in peace and harmony with one another, as One, is the fundamental desire and want within all of you.

Even a small experience such as writing to the online philosophy forum is a learning experience. Learning does change the future you will have.Learning makes your future more full of possibilities. Learning frees you to experience more choices.

It does tie in with the whole 'no free will' thing. If the future already exists then obviously there's nothing we can do to change it. When you really think about it 'now' does seem like a rather absurd concept (not to mention an arrogant one). But it begs the question, if we have memories of our 'past', then why don't we have them of our 'future'? (or do we?)

But if the future already existed it would be the past not the future; determinism does not imply predicting the future , that would be fatalism not determinism.

There is no "trajectory". The future is absolutely open, although we can calculate probabilities.

As for the free will thing, what we have is a mixture of chance and choice, which is not the same as metaphysical "Free Will".

You really ought to start wearing a muzzle.

And since you’re obviously scouting around for helpful information then I’m happy to have been some help to you by posting information that has made you realise how useless it was.

Better luck next time. Just don’t ask me that’s all. You’ll be better off looking elsewhere that would be more helpful for you.

Maybe try extracting it from your own mind.

Information doesn’t belong to any body exclusively, it’s infinite and freely available to read by every single reader on the planet.

1. 'you' nor 'I' have our own minds.

2. 'you' are 'the one' making claims. 'I' am 'the one' trying to extract whether you, also, know the reason why you would make claims that are absolutely False and/or an absolute impossibility to exist. I can not extract 'the reason' whether 'you' know, or do not know, why you continue to make False and Wrong claims, here.

Although 'I' already know why you do, whether you know 'why', or not, 'I' do not yet know, absolutely. Only 'you' can provide those types of answers. As 'I' have explained to 'you', previously.

you seem to believe it does. As it is 'you' who tells others you are not going to provide information, and that it is up to them to find out from "themselves".

Which, obviously, is another absolute contradiction, of yours.

Just how many times are 'you' going to contradict "your" 'self', here, in this forum?

So, where does one 'read' 'the reason' why 'you' keep contradicting "your" 'self', here, exactly?

Where, exactly, does one 'find' 'the answer' as to whether you have yet seen the Wrong and False claims that you have made, here?

Again, because absolutely every thing is relative, to the observer, the fact that 'the future' has, or has not yet happened, (exactly like every other topic of discussion, here), is depended upon from who and/or whats perspective, exactly.

As I alluded to earlier, here, if there is a 'being' on a planet, let 'us' say, 10 billion years away from earth, right 'now' at 'the moment' of reading this sentence, then, to them, 'you', and, "your future", has already obviously happened.

When have you ever experienced another mind?

If you could experience another mind, where would that take place?

When I claim anything I expect readers to take it for granted that my claim is mine and not that of some overarching authority, and that no reader is on a faraway planet.

And you seem condescending. Perhaps candy crush or online scrabble would be better suited to you.
