Does the free will of man really mean independency from the will of god? If this is assumed, then the mind of man must be a limit on god's omniscience, since there is within man's mind that which cannot be known by god.
Interesting point.
If Man's free will is independent from God's will, then God is no longer an omniscient entity since there are some things that he/she/it cannot know and therefore cannot predict/control.
If Man's free will isn't independent from God's will, then it can no longer be called
free will since any choice made by us would have firstly been predicted/controlled by God.
Either Man's free will doesn't actually exist, or God isn't omniscient.
Tough choice.
