Three lines or phrases from Christopher Marlowe's The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus that suggests that the said theme is predestined and cannot be changed by human choice are options 1, 5 and 7.

Explanation:

Through these lines, the theme gets beautifully expressed. Faustus here considers different fields of study starting with logic and moving onto medicine and law. While seeking knowledge, he arrives at theology where he opens the New Testament of the Bible and quotes from the Romans and the first book of John. The first sentence that gives an insight into the theme is introduced by Faustus which means everyone does sins and these sins lead to death which makes Christianity seem like it can only promise death. That’s why Faustus says the second sentence which also expresses the theme in discussion. He then neglects reading the next line in John. This aversion completely ignores the very chance of redemption and throughout the play, the same tone is noticed. Faustus views things as he wants to view them and not what is really there. This blindness turns him against heaven which makes him address black magic as “heavenly” and religion as the starting point of “everlasting death.”

it's like watching a fable, it's not really about the animals but rather it has a meaning that is understood by us and that is implicit, not explicitly said. implicit ideas are common and are used in almost all works of art, from writing to painting to sculpting.

- "he is a very real person and his intent isn't to influence us vonnegut addresses this towards the end of the letter when he says, if we choose to curse, that is by our own individual means."
