Did you read the verse I referenced? Jeremiah and abortion - Adam4d.com Then there's Psalm 51:5: 'Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.' The second clause should be enough to quell any doubt. Also, I never said anything that is even slightly related to the...

The Bible doesn't specifically address abortion, but it does say that we shouldn't murder, and unborn babies are human (Jeremiah 1:5)

Bible Gateway passage: 2 Corinthians 6:14 - New International Version

Now suppose the manuscript was sent back in time. I am not going to anything different from what it says, but since what it says is determined by what I will do, I still have free will.

I have not changed my position one single time throughout this entire circular discussion. I just want you to give a simple, yes/no answer to this question, and I will explain how this is relevant once I know we are on the same page. Suppose God gave you a written account of everything I did...

What exactly do you mean by 'evolution'? Also, crux, not cross.

I agree that I would do nothing different from what the script says. However, this has no bearing on my free will. That is because what the script says is determined by what I will do tomorrow, even though the script was created beforehand. If I were to go swimming tomorrow, the script would...

Please explain how knowing something will happen beforehand is part and parcel with being the sole determining factor of it.

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even though nothing will happen that contradicts God's fore knowledge, what God knows will happen is determined by what will happen, rather than vice versa.

I am not ignoring the question! I have answered it, as have many others. Perhaps you don't understand because you aren't thinking outside of time. That God knows my choices beforehand, does not mean he is making those choices for me, and although I am not going to choose anything else, since it...

Here we go again. God knows what I will do because I will choose to do it, and if I were to choose to do something else, God would know that instead. It's really quite simple and I don't see how this is a problem.

No, and I never said so.

I'm not a Calvinist.

Okay, so the time traveler analogy is flawed. God would know that if He told me I would tell you, and He would know if you would choose to eat something else as a result, so He would know that telling me would (indirectly) make what He is telling me false. And since God doesn't lie, He wouldn't...

This might sound strange, but whether God tells you before or after I have breakfast, has no bearing on my free will. Why? Because I choose, and God knows my choice. Thus if God told you beforehand, you know what I will choose, but it is still my choice, because what God told you is my choice...

To answer that question, I must ask you one. Suppose God told you what I ate for breakfast yesterday. If I ate toast He will tell you that, because I chose to have toast. If I ate pancakes He will tell you that, because I chose to have pancakes. Is God determining my decision?

In post #128 I said Exactly. Knowing something will happen =/= making it happen. You replied (#130) I didn't say it did. What I said is, if God knows for sure that you will do something, then you have no choice but to do what he knows. Do you agree? I replied (#133) So you are saying that...

No! We already agreed that God knows something is true because it is true, rather than something is true because God knows it, and thus since it is true that I choose something, God knows it, but He doesn't make it happen because knowing something has happened or will happen is not the same as...
