"like I said, assuming omniscience is the easy way out"
It's the easy way out to what? to your proving that omscience is mutually exlusive to free will? If it is, then USE IT. Dont exclude it because its too easy. Use the easiest or best argument that you can, dont hold back.. If you werent talking about your argument, then i'll ask again, what do you mean by "the easy way out"?
"Suppose this holds true. Does this not vindicate my point even further? Existing outside of time means God would know exactly what we do not only before, but after and during our actions, making the whole idea of choice even more illusory."
No this does not vindicate your point further. You havnt given an argument for it. Your just repeating your conlucison. You havnt mentioned how the heck you go from "god knows past, present and future" to "you have no free will"
"Now, even I would agree this point is a bit hazy, but so is the assumption of anything existing "outside of time". Realistically conceiving of something existing that isn't a function of space and time is impossible."
Whether God exists within or outside of time is irrelevant. The point of my paragraph was that God knows the past, the present AND the future, not just the past, as your point implied. Whether he knows it within or outside of time doesnt matter.
"everything done by God is purposeful and planned, such that even such a small event as me driving to Uni this Wednesday is a specific, intended, calculated result of God's actions. Calculated, like with my analogy of moving a toy truck."
Here you say that your driving to uni is a calculated result of GOD'S actions and God's actions alone. Doesnt this assume your conclusion before you even prove it? Making the assumption that your driving to uni is a direct result of God's actions and Gods actions alone exludes any other factors that would affect the event's occurrence, primarily your free will. You automatically assume that you dont have free will in this point.
So in saying that "god specifically made the universe such that q", you are ASSUMING that Gods existence automatically exludes our free will (without an argument), which is your conlusion. You are assuming your conclusion in your reasoning. This is flat out circular reasoning. Your assuming your conclusion to prove the assertion, and using the assertion to prove the conclusion. I think that puts a fairly large hole in your argument.
"In case you plan on arguing further against this, I will explain. "An accident is a specific, identifiable, unexpected, unusual and unintended external action" (from Wiki). Can you see where omnipotence conflicts with this?"
Not sure what your point is here. Are you saying that if an omnipotent God existed, then accidents would not happen, but since accident do happen, then god must not exist? sorry for making you repeat, i'm just trying to get a better picture of what you mean.
"All three of the main terms in this definition, "unexpected, unusual and unintended", imply a lack of power over the event/action in question."
That depends on what standards "accidents" are measured by. If we take it by human standards, and the common use of the word "accident", then an acccident is anything that is unexpected, unusual and unintended in comparison to what WE know.
For example, I had a car crash (i didnt really, just using an analogy). I was going through an intersection when someone ran a red light and hit the side of my car. I didnt expect the car to hit me, I think i'd get hit by a car today so it was very unusual, and i definately didnt intend to get hit by the car. So as far as i know, the whole thing was an accident. So if you are speaking in human standards, you are correct, because we ARE powerless to stop these things.
But when we take the scenario by God's standards, nothing is unexpected, unusual or unintended. Firstly, God is omniscient, so my car crash would have been expected. Secondly, the car crash is not unusual, since God knows the cause of every aspect of the accident ie. He knows that the driver was distracted, and he knows that i wasnt paying attention to my blind spot, and he knows every law of physics that allowed the crash to happen. there is nothing in this scenario that is distant to God, so it was not unusual. Thirdly, God intended the crash. God had every power to be able to stop the crash, but it is possible that he chose not to intervene. So the crash was ALLOWED to happen by God, despite his ability to prevent it. So by God's standards, nothing is an accident. Which standards are you reffering to?
"Which, like I said before, is by definition in conflict with omnipotence which implies complete power over every event/action."
And how is it in conflict with his omnipotence? God is omnipotent, but it is possible that he does not CHOOSE to act on every event that occurs within the universe. God does not have to be in complete domination over every being in existence. He has the power to imbue creations with properties of their own, and he lets them run their course. For example, he created the property that every single object that has a mass, also has a gravitational field. If God imbues this property into all mass, and he created a universe in which these properties can freely manifest themselves, then God is free to let everything run its course.
For example, everytime i drop a rock, and it falls to the ground, does that mean God moved the rock? Not directly. God may have allowed the rock to fall to the ground of it own accord, because it has properties that enable it to do so. In an indirect way, he did make the rock fall because he gave it the ability to fall in the first place, but after the universe is set in motion, God is free to let creation run its course. So if God steps back and lets the universe (which he put into motion) run its course, does that make him any less powerful? the answer is no. God has the power to do anything and everything in the universe, he can just choose not to.
So if God imbues humanity with free will, and allows the consequences of free will to exist, then does that make God any less powerful? No. God IS free and powerful enough to over-rule our free will at any time he wants, but he just continuously chooses not to. This does not make him any less able to do so.
"Any action of free will, therefore, is also in direct conflict with omnipotence; such an action would define an event of "unexpected, unusual and unintended" nature."
Not true. As i mentioned above, nothing is an accident to God. Any action that i make is expected by God. I think we can assume this point because we have assumed that God is omniscient. Any action that i make is not unusual to God, because God knows the inner workings of my mind. He knows my dispositions, my loves my hates, my emotional state, my physical state etc.. God knows everything about me. He knows me better than i know myself. So any action i make is never foreign to God, because he knows the exact root causes of my decisions. Finally, my choices are intended by God, since God intended to give me free will and the ability to choose. So free will does not conflict with God's omnipotence
Crap the post is huge!! Sorry about that! ill try to be more concise next time
