Still Having Trouble

I’ve been thinking about this the entire summer! Here’s the link to my thread to read about it:

Here’s my problem….

If I cannot do anything else but eat the bacon (check out the link), how can there be free will then?
For us to have free will, we need to have the capacity to choose.  If I do not eat the bacon, this god wouldn’t then be omniscient. Right now I’ll be reading this.

I’ll try to opine (that is, if I don’t forget).

    I have wrestled with this thought for quite some time. It is really hard to accept the fact that we humans have no freewill. But again, no sense denying the facts. Until I be shown that we could indeed have freewill, I will and must remain a determinist.

    Have you considered soft determinism? I personally find it no different from hard determinism.
