[Avodah] Feedback, causality & G-d

[David Riceman]

RDE:

<<I can not find any Jewish sources regarding feedback - to pick a 
reference and modify behavior or processes or efforts to maximize the 
referent. This is a fundamental Western idea - but not Jewish.>>

What about the Rambam's letter on astrology (Igros HaRambam, ed. 
Sheilat, pp. 478-490)? In the paragraph on p. 480 he blames hurban 
habayis on neglecting the study of war and instead studying astrology.
