By god knowing the outcome, it necessarily follows that we DO NOT have free will. Free will implies that god could not know the outcome thereby proving his lack of omniscience and by extension, his very existence.
So you can have it one way or the other. Either we have free will and god does not exist, or we live predetermined lives and god is a cruel kid with a magnifying glass.

Why can't science detect angels and demons?
Because they don't exist.

Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot and John Gacy were men. Nothing more. They were raised Catholic for the most part. Even Pol Pot attended Catholic schools. Mao was the only one without a lot of exposure to Christianity.

Why are you so determined that Hitler and friends had to have been demons? Is it that if they were just ordinary men committing and authorising evil acts, then the same could be said of anyone? Or is there another motive?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
