This in a way, nullifies free will. Since it actually isn't freewill if God baked us together with his ingredients and knows the outcome.
If the god knows the path of every human, he has already predetermined who will go to hell or not or who will turn out to be evil or not.. who will be an atheist or not and who will turn out to be a theist. So he then causes conflicts in between the two even though he created every single one of them in a certain way and purposely did so, just for his own entertainment? It would feel strange to say that a God would need entertainment since that would be a human trait, why would an all-powerful being need entertainment?
Thoughts on this?
Good questions. If I could ask you question, what is free will? Is it subjective or objective? Does it depend on temporal state?
While I could attempt to answer your question, I couldn't justify how god could be benevolent while being omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient.
Brevity is the soul of wit.
