You mean omniscient?
And while I used to agree in the past, this argument can be defeated actually.
God actualizes the world in which you freely choose to do X beforehand. So he doesn't have to actually change it at any point in time to ensure you choose X.
Of course, this doesn't mean that free will makes sense. But to argue for the incompatibility between God and free will is going to be hard with this counter in mind.
Yes, but if god chooses to actualize world A (of which he knows the future) from a set of possible worlds he could potentially choose from (say, A, B, or C), then once he makes that decision to actualize world A, he is essentially revoking the free will of the people who are going to exist in that world. Am I making any sense?
