Fate, Incarceration, Omnipotence...

Had a discussion with a co-worker today. Discussing fate, soul mates, reincarnation and god's potential of omnipotence. I think I've discussed this before but I'm too lazy to go back through and look. So, moving onward, she was thinking, due to a past heard theory, that we all have 9 lives with our current soul (no, we arent all feline in some way) And that if you've really found your soulmate, through out all 9 lives, you'll somehow end up with that same soul to be with. I myself don't think so, I think we create our own soulmates, that throughout the choices we make, we decide on different things that are necessary in the person we want to be with. Fate can be thought of along the same lines, that we make our own. So the question resides, fate: self made or pre-ordained? Personally I think God is omnipotent to the point where he knows all our POSSIBLE decisions, and all the consequences coinciding to each, he also knows the PROBABLE choice we will make, however there is still the chance we dont make that, hence why he knows all other options. Confused yet? Wait till I get going! Personally I dont like the idea of reincarnation, for reasons I dont need to get into because its long and drawn out. This post is over tonight, my damn roommate threw off my train of thought. I'll come back and edit it sometime. Rock on people.
