It is absolutely unfathomable to me how you can keep these two ideas in your head at the same time and still think it makes any sense. You must actively discourage yourself from thinking about any of this, I can't explain it otherwise. If the creator God knows our final decisions, they are predetermined by Him, we have no free will and no choice, and he knowingly creates the individuals already marked for suffering in hell. What a perverse God, what an inconsistent world view.

Could be I'm smart than you are, huh. I have no problem with foreknowledge and free will, the problem you have with it is this, you need someone to blame and so you twist things around about God to get you to that point. No one here has ever given any reasonable reason why God would predetermine a persons future, no evidence to why He would, nothing other than your saying He does. Know what, that carries no authority, none at all, just a bunch of hogwash. Tell me if God had predetermined everyone's future, then why do we have commandments that we should follow, by necessity if we are predestined they would not be necessary because we couldn't obey and/or disobey. Stop deflecting and respond with something reasonable.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
