It is a logical inconsistancy to claim that foreknowledge of an individual's actions allows that individual to possess free will. If the will is known, it is not free. If the will is free, it cannot be known.
Thus, if a deity has foreknowledge of an individual's actions, then that deity has denied the individual's free will.
If an individual's will is genuinely free, then any claim that a deity can have prior knowledge of an individual's actions is false.
Free will and an omniscient deity are mutually exclusive. If either is encompassed by a theologically honest position, the other must be denied. --OmnusErudito 14:24, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
