The main idea of the paragraph is best expressed in sentence number

i copied and pasted this so u might wanna change the words up a bit

Explanation:

The idea of being star-crossed links back to the idea of fate and the cosmos or gods deciding our future for us. It gives a sense of hopelessness that no matter what happens, the fate would stay the same. Romeo and Juliet being star crossed lovers meant that they were never meant to be together and happy. It was the belief that the stars didn't align in their favor. For King Oedipus, it was more of the Greek gods, but still obtains the idea of fate and an uncontrollable future. Oedipus was fated to live a sad life, and while others would argue he could've done something else, I believe that he couldn't simply because he didn't know any better before.
