Subject: Crevice Tool Enhancement

I have no idea what crevice tool enhancement is.

you want controversial topics??
you got it

Consider the following logic...
--------------------
"A" refers to any given action, e.g., "post this article." "~A" refers to the opposite of that action, e.g., "not post this article."

1. God's knowledge cannot be wrong.
2. God knows that I will do A.
3. If I have free will, then (I can do A) and (I can do ~A).
4. If I can do ~A, then it is possibly true that I will do ~A.
5. If it is possibly true that I will do ~A, then God's 'knowledge' that I will do A is possibly false.
6. If God's knowledge that I will do A is possibly false, then God's
'knowledge' can be wrong.
7. Therefore, God's knowledge that I will do A is not possibly false.
8. Therefore, it is not possibly true that I will do ~A.
9. Therefore, I cannot do ~A.
10. Therefore, it is false that (I can do A) and (I can do ~A).
11. Therefore, I don't have free will.

Anyone who accepts premises 1-6 will logically reach the conclusion of the non-existence of free will. Any other person, or even God Himself, could be subsistuted for "I" in this argument.
----------------------------------

If you are going to respond to this please tell me at what point the logic breaks down and why. Or you can just agree with the conclusions...
