A Secure Future-Everyone's Desire - WHAT ARE THE RESULTS?

Have those who trust in such beliefs and practices found a good life and a secure future?

Consider the experience of Hao, who lives in Vietnam. He turned to astrology, feng shui, and ancestor worship to guide  him.  Did he find success?  Hao says,  "I failed in my business, fell into debt, faced family conflicts, and was emotionally wrecked."

Qiuming, from Taiwan, likewise, believed in astrolpogy, reincarnation, fate, feng shui, and ancestor worship.  After examinging these subjects carefully, he said:  "I realized that such teachings and customs are in conflict with each other and are confusing. I found that the astrological predictions were often incorrect. A s for reincarnation, if you have no  memory of your previous life, how can you change and do better in the next life?

As Hao, Qiuming, and many others have to realize, our future is not determined by fate, the stars, or deceased ancestors, or rebirth.  Does this mean that we have no control over our future?
