Free will, ehh...


That just excuses God from all actions, and even excuses him from appearing to exist! His complete inaction in anything but the magical here-after is supposed to demonstrate love, while all it really demonstrates is a rationale for the obvious appearance that God is absent.

The problem is paradoxical anyway, since a truly free world and a truly omniscient God are mutually exclusive.
