The Illusion of Choice

I've asked Christians this question before and usually it ends up in an angry argument getting off topic or they haven't given me a plausible answer yet:So if there were a god doesn't it defy free will then?  If God is the three O's (Omniscient, Omnipresent, Omnipotent) as we define a God to be, then he knows what choices we will make.  So why even punish for the choices you make when the choice itself was an illusion and he knew what you would choose.  Why even have heaven and hell?  Or even…See More

"It used to be that god was here to explain everything. We shown that to not be the case. The sun rises because the earth spins, not because god makes it so. So why would you introduce or even entertain god in the beginning? You've posted that…"

"Since the post notes the Christian Religion, I must disagree with you. The Bible lays out conditions that clearly lay the age of the earth out as young. That is not a position of science. The Bible lays out earthquakes as being caused by god's…"

"Welcome to TA Calvin. You dove right in. I can respect that. These things religions pose of morality is just naturally human.. Obvious as a human race it is better for us to continue the species by working together instead of killing each other. -…"

"The Dalia Lama is on record w.r.t. science that he (and his followers) will relinquish any rational explanation from science for natural phenomena. To the extent Buddhists are following a process or using a tactic to achieve certain brain states it…"

Ricardo replied to Calvin Tse's discussion 'Religion and Science.. do the two Coexist?'
"You say that religion and science are" both trying to prove the meaning of existence". That is not true. Science does not try to prove, or to find, the meaning of existence. Scientists are much more humble than that, and only try to…"

"now you're back to saying that science and religion are the same... lol. conceptually they are the same? in what sense are they conceptually the same? because they both are ways of understanding the world? religion isn't a way of…"
