Foreknowledge precludes free will when you add omnipotence. . If your god does not control what people do then why do you pray to him? Why does the bible tell us to pray for our rulers if god does not in some way control what they do? Even if you say god does not control everything, you have neither knowledge nor control over what god chooses to intervene. So how do you know on any given day at any given moment if what you are doing is from your free will or from god controlling you? What percent of your actions has god decided he needs to control in order to fulfill his plan?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.
Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.

Nietzsche isn't dead. How do I know he lives? He lives in my mind.
