Fatalism, Determinisms and Predestination

The disapearance of Madeliene McCann according to a fatalistic, deterministic and predestinationist point of view:

Fatalism: Madeliene was always going to go missing at the exact time, place and way she did. There was nothing that could be done to prevent it.

Determinsm: It was dtermined that Madleine was going to go missing and the choices of everyone involved i.e. the parents and kidnappers are what led to it hapening the way that it did.

Predestination: A higher power (God) planned for Madeliene to go missing. Human choices did not effect the matter.
