Still not knowledge, just an ad hoc circling of one out of many worlds, possible or otherwise.
Not sure how that's not knowledge? God made the selection as to which world to actualize, so it would know what world it actualized. Yes, the selection of which world to actualize is predetermined, but the possibility of having chosen another option instead of the one that was made in the actual world means that free will (as defined earlier) can operate with God's predetermining which world to actualize.
This one is a general remark and not specifically targeted at you: In the actual world, only one choice is inevitably made, but it doesn't mean this choice was necessary. To suggest that would be to commit the modal scope fallacy. It only means that this choice was made in this actual world instead of another choice.
As for your earlier posts, I get the gist of them but I don't even feel like debating the core of possible worlds semantics. In addition, whether sheer possibility of knowledge must necessitate fatalism doesn't really attack the argument I'm making specifically. We could have fatalism and yet also free will (as defined earlier).
