> Not only do I think everything is fated beyond our control but I have the belief that society would function better if people were educated young about understanding the concept of determinism and why we don't have control over how life transpires

We can’t really decide to do that because we don’t have the free will for it. Preordained fate has decreed for there to be no such education.

I mean, you argument appears self-defeating to me. Is it not?

"decide" is not incompatible with determinism, it just means the decision will always be the same. We all make decisions every day, they just aren't free.

So in this case, it has all been determined that we do not have the education currently, but that says nothing of what the future is determined to be.

The same could have been said about when people thought the world was flat. Intelligence prevails overtime.
