Note 130 — Chapter XIII · THE RELATION OF THE STOIC PHILOSOPHY TO RELIGION.
Oswald J. (Oswald Joseph) Reichel translation
The Stoics could not altogether suppress a suspicion that an unchangeable predestination of all events has rendered individual activity superfluous,130 nor meet the objection131 that, on the hypothesis of necessity, divination itself is unnecessary.132 They quieted themselves, however, with the thought that divination, and the actions resulting from divination, are included among the causes foreordained by destiny.133
