BF2S Forums How Does Free Will Work if You are Religious?

Ok. Free will is one of the basis of christian religion, and in simple terms it means you always have a choice, and this directly implies that you can't just blame god when things aren't right. If it were gods fault, then there would be nothing anyone can do, after all, he is allmighty. Since we have free will, we always have the choice to pick ourselves and try again, as to quit in face of "god determined my failure". (This is an example)

By granting free will we can choose our own course of action, and that is indiferent if you think god knows what we will do or not. Free will is actualy a philosofical term much more broader than religion itself, and I don't see in anyway following a religion can reduce my free will, wether or not I think god is omnipresent or omnipotent. After all, I follow this of my own free will as much as you follow your own beleifs.
