Ce n'est pas une fatalité
Can someone give me an example of the use of the phrase "Ce n'est pas une fatalité"? I suspect an equivalent in English would be "It's not the end of the world".

Ce n'est pas une fatalité means that you have a choice, c'est le contraire de : c'est écrit, c'est le destin ... autrement dit, quelque chose qu'on ne peut pas changer.

it is not the only issue...
"La fatalité est le caractère de ce qui est inéluctable."
"c'était fatal" cela devait arriver

It's not the end of the worls would mean something like it's not that bad, right?
Ce n'est pas une fatalité has a different meaning. For example in this article http://www.lejdd.fr/Economie/Actualite/Pierre-Moscovici-La-croissance-faible-n-est-pas-une-fatalite-Interview-544556 Finance minister Moscovici thinks there ARE solutions against weak growth.
You can also take a look at this thread for another example http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=1593475
