Question:

What does there are no coincidences mean?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Everything that happens is put into motion by someone. It's the old "for want of a nail a shoe was lost, etc." You act and there are reprocussions of that act that never stop. The ripple effect. So I suppose we could say that behind everything that happens there was a conscious act. If we say that a "coincidence" is like an "accident", then everything has happened because somebody started the motion which resulted in whatever happened to you. Does this make sense? The so-called "coincidence" didn't just happen, it was caused by somebody somewhere upstream. At leas that's one explanation.
