Free will and the Christian God

On a side note, I've always wondered why anyone insists on omni-anything from their god(s). From our point of view, how could we possibly know if such knew everything or just a helluva lot more than us .. or was omnipotent or just a helluva lot more powerful than us. Being the most good is perhaps the hardest to make sense of since context makes so much difference morally.

So long as theists insist on omni-everything, objections such as Godless Girl's will forever arise.
