Real Church Sign

I'm having trouble understanding the distinction. 

I took this picture, myself, so it's not one of those faked church signs.

Am I the only one that finds the "grace" here ironic?

I got into a discussion with someone the other day who insisted that "you can make your fate but you cannot change your fate".

Can I make my fate, then decide to make my fate again?

Pretty much, except that your fate doesn't change because you cannot change it.

The reason for it was kind of amusing. He was saying how he believes how everything else will fall out is already decided, then my wife amusingly asked him when he became a Calvinist. He vehemently denied this then tried to explain how everything is already decided but that doesn't mean Calvinism is true (or something like that). Thus the statement that "you can make your fate but you cannot change your fate".

I tried explaining the difference in fatalism and determinism and *woosh*, right over the head.
