I've cleaned many chickens and seen directly what goes on in the egg making process. When a chicken is born how many eggs does it have and why? How do you eat the yoke without breaking the shell?

So you don't know.
I told you I did but you haven't answered my questions.

One question, how do you know he's never lied to you? It's easy to lie to yourself. If "he" is really "you" then "he" is lying to you right now.
God is not me, I'm me and I make furniture, God made the universe something I'm not able to do.
I know He hasn't because I see no evidence that He has, besides what reason would an omniscient being have to lie, to lie would undermine who He is.

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.
