Chapter 4, part 2

Throughout this chapter, I was reminded of the concept of time and fate. I was especially reminded of the concept of fate when the Tralfamadorians say, "Why anything? Because this moment simply is" (76). This chapter made it seem as though everything that happened to Billy, was already predetermined before it actually happened to him. Therefore, it was silly to the Tralfamadorians that he even questioned why this was happening to him.
