God existing outside this timeline could poke his finger and alter some small detail. He still knows the full ramifications to the end of any timeline, they're just changed. It's only a logical paradox if you fix the definitions your way.
Also, if you're suggesting God should have foreknowledge, how does that transpose onto an entity existing outside of time as God is defined in Christianity? Foreknowledge becomes constant knowledge.
No Frodo ... it is your god that sets the rules.
- If a god is omniscient (possessing of all knowledge) it must know the future.
- If that god changes it's mind then it changes it to some other future.
- If that is so then it was not right about the future and is therefore NOT omniscient.
- This is a paradox.
This is not rocket science ... it is logic.
