Inevitable future = predestination, a hot philosophical debate "free will vs determinism". Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar is a book by 2 hilarious modern philosophers (Cathcart and Klein) who explain philosophical issues via jokes. Here's determinism explained:

Rachel sees her friend walking with her 2 grandchildren. "Oh, Sylvia, what beautiful kids! How old are they?"
Sylvia: "The doctor is 5, and the lawyer is 7."

Sadly, he didn't keep his math grades up, so the hard sciences are out (unless he becomes independently wealthy and can afford his own lab). He's a bit adrift at the moment, what with the world as it is, but he's applying to schools to be an x-ray technician. He's 19; class of 2020, such as it was.
