Question:

Is the Future set in stone?

If our actions are dictated by our values at the time of action, and those we interact with also act on their values, is every interaction not already set?

The question I'm asking is more if the future is predictable. For example, if we had a ground-hog day without retaining the outcomes of our actions, would we not make the exact same decisions we made the first time around?

It's a fact that one's value system will evolve in real time, but it will always evolve the same way given the same situation at the same stage of it's evolution. If there is a plausible, scientific reason to believe that the outcome could possibly ever change within the time line, I want to know about it.
