Usually when a theist brings up free will, it's an attempt to excuse their god for not solving problems that are out of our control. Why didn't he stop the rapist from raping? Free will. Ignoring the fact that he apparently values the rapist's free will over the victim's free will.
Plus there are stories in the bible where god specifically ignores free will, like Moses and the Pharaoh. Or Jonah. Or anyone else who doesn't kowtow to his demands.
Whether or not we actually have free will, which is apparently a debatable concept, it doesn't help from a theistic perspective.

I keep forgetting there are some people who go off the wall, saying they worship a god without following the book or church's teachings. This must be how new cults are formed, except some people aren't able to get a following to start one.
I'll say most normal theists, then. I don't have an explanation for your type.

Lil Rick calling me a fool is a compliment. It'll be when he thinks I'm brilliant that I'm worried!

Does god talk inside your head every time you bang your head against the wall?

You seem like a complete troll, but somehow a funny one.
The word bed actually looks like a bed.
