Is omniscience limitless?
I would say no.
Since I would say yes, it is obvious that we aren't operating under the same definitions are we?
I guess not.
Your disagreement with me and crevo appears to be an arbitrary one of definition. If we use yours then omniscience is limited (not limitless) and the whole problem evaporates like morning mist.
Yeah, I was saying earlier we could have a thread on just what omniscience includes, but I think we've pretty much worked it out here, it comes down to an opinion.
If, however, you look at it by the agreed upon premise of this thread (ie. omniscience IS limitless) then what do you see?
No free will.
That we don't
really have free will and it seems like we do, the OP is correct in that it could be called an illusion.
That or god isn't omniscient, because it sure does seem like I have free will.
My original post in this thread was without reading the OP and really only disagree with the interpretation of the definition of omniscience.
So how does prophecy work then?
Omnipotence.
Anyway, I can happily accept and even agree with what you are saying but your argument is kinda meaningless when the premise of the question (for this thread only) is that God DOES know the future
Yeah, I realized that affter I read the OP (after I had already began discussing).
Particularly now that I know we have no real disagreement to argue about anyway.
Other than what omniscince includes.
