Omniscience and free will are unconciliable

Well let's submit this to a close logicak examination.

Yeah, I just had a guy tell me something similar online last night. He said that "God plans the details of our life in great detail, yet, we're still responsible". I wanted to get some clarification from him, but he has yet to respond.

This is actually the first I've talked to a person that's hinted at accepting that God controls all of our stimuli like we're in a Skinner-box, and I'm wondering if that's what he really means or if he's really bad at wording his stance. More importantly, I asked him if we had any ability to go against God's will, or if God's "meticulous planning" will happen with 100% accuracy.
