Was it created by your god in the full knowledge of what it would bring about.. or not ?
Sin, as the deprivation of good, becomes possible the moment someone has a choice. There is good evidence that it is impossible for any single human to choose perfectly. Ergo we have good reasons to conclude that free will entails sin (at least in humans).
I asked how do you define free will, not a cut and pastes from WLC. break it down for me in easy to understand english
So let me see if i get this right, if god created free will and then gave that free will to humans in full knowledge it would lead to sin, then would you agree god created man in full knowledge that they had no other option than to sin ?
