Default Re: Omnipotence Doesn\'t Imply Seeing The Future.

Found these, they may help

Main Entry: free will
Function: noun
1 : voluntary choice or decision <I do this of my own free will>
2 : freedom of humans to make choices that are not determined by prior causes or by divine intervention

#1 seems to be a logical loop since it uses basically the same terms to explain itself, and doesn't really mean anything

#2 seems to be presenting an idea that is outside of logic. Is that what free will is to you (all)? A desition which has nothing to do with the laws of the universe/God?
Other than the fact that this is rather unlikely for what we know, we seem to be in trouble when considering that the only non-logical procedure that we think we know about, is randomness. Is that what free will is supposed to be? Hell, I hope not [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
