If you love your imaginary frind so much why did you just call him a prick?
I didn't, I'm responding to your lack of understanding of the scriptures. "The unspiritual man does not receive the gifts (literally "things") of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned" (1 Cor. 2:14) and 2 Cor.3:14-16; 4:3, 6; Heb. 5:14; James 1:5-6; 2 Peter 3:5; John 17:7; 8:43. That's a few reasons why I know you don't know. Sin gets in the way of all people to understand, but the Christian is forgiven and when they seek Gods guidance through scripture they will be guided to understanding, 1 Cor. 2:14; 1:18-25; James 1:5-6; 22-25.

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.
