The Stoics

I have come to realize that my philosophy of God, will and fate, and the unity of the creation is identical to that of the Stoics. The fact that I came to identical conclusions independently is evidence of it's self-evidence. I found an article that outlines exactly the thoughts I have had about causal determinism and it's interplay with free will.

I have just read an article by the same author on the subject of Stoicism and passions. Many of their ideals are similar to mine. They are close enough that I'm thinking that maybe I'm a Stoic and didn't know it.
