No, I'm pointing out to you that if an all-knowing lawgiver were in the punishment business he wouldn't even have to wait for the criminal to be born. What exactly is he waiting on, are they going to prove him wrong? Immorality of inaction my friend. It also absolutely annihilates the idea of free will. Oh sure it may seem like free will to you, but if it was already known to an all-knowing being it was predetermined. If you could prove an all-knowing being wrong he wouldn't be all-knowing. The whole idea of heavenly laws and punishment handed down by an all-knowing being becomes a joke. Just going through the motions. Born to burn.
So you would take away what life they would have and influence in the world. No mercy? The actions still exist because of the choice, actions are real and matter. You have to think big picture, hard for you.
