Then I really have to ask why you chose to portray yourself as Zachary Quinto rather than the immortal and pioneering Nimoy, impressive as the recasting was?
By the way, there were eighty episodes of proper Star Trek (I hate the term TOS, sorry) including the first pilot, followed by twenty-two episodes of the vastly underrated Filmation animated series and of course six and a half films.
I stand corrected.

In that it is not omniscience, but a desperate attempt to salvage a shitty attribute. Drop the word and you can have free will. Drop the notion that this creature can see future "choices" (drop the notion that it is even possible) and you can have free will, till then I'm just going to keep reminding you.
(omniscience is just too important...isn't it..lulz)
So you would have Christians accept a concept of God in which its omniscience trumps its omnipotence and omnibenevolence? Remember: The Christian believes her God is the most perfect being that exists. Please explain how a god who has neither the power (i.e., omnipotence) to control its omniscience, nor the caring desire (i.e., omnibenevolence) to control its omniscience is more perfect than one who does have the power and desire to limit its omniscience.
It's not that hard to grasp, my friend. It's as simple as rock, paper, scissors!
