this is sad. everyone says their god is all powerful and all knowing, yet no one can accept that free will doesnt exist because of the fact that god can see the future, therefore whatever u do is set in stone. also no one sees that he KNEW what adam and eve would do and therefore condemded them and their children to a life of suffering KNOWINGLY.
i want digi's opinion on this, seeing as he used to be a catholic

Oh, yeah. I did. Because, theoretically, God lacks free will, too...if you accept the fact that God is limited by His own power.

I disagree on most of your post ,you are right about one thing.there is only one limit my God has.The fact that he can not Sin.That is the only limit my friend.
As for most of you, you just wan't look at the fact that the future is always shifting and we are the actors and God is the viewer.Perhaps you can see the truth is because the very fact is you don't what to see it.As i posted before our (human)brains are far to small to understand the ways of Homo Superior A.K.A GOD.So way waste your time tring to nit pit about every little thing that just doesn't open itself up to you the very moment you try to understand it.

You are one the right path, but take it one step further... no one can understand the nature of God.
BTW a god that cannot sin is a limited god.

I will give you the simple answer: no one can understand the true nature of reality. We can learn more and more over time, but we will never be completely right. The people who write the bible did not understand the true nature of God, but they thought they understand some small aspect, and they wrote it down. They were wrong, just like we are wrong.
Now if you'd said no one can grasp anything other than their own personal reality then, I'd agree with you on the first sentence.
The rest I agree with.
And people should learn to stop projecting their realities onto others.
Thats where hate/war starts. "Only one true god" etc

true true, but to do that is to bypass humanity
