You are just being egotistical now. What makes you think you could keep a supreme being guessing? You are just a common, everyday human being, you don't have god-like comprehension. therefore it makes no sense to you. It eludes my ability to fully comprehend, as I am no greater in metaphysical knowledge than the next guy. But, free will is the ability to make a choice. If a being knows what choice you will make in advance it doesn't mean that time is already plotted and your decisions are made for you, it just means that your decisions are known to this being. You're going on the idea that god must be able to "read" this event and therefore the timeline is already set. This is wrong. You are putting the argument in terms your human mind can comprehend, rather than realizing it is beyond your comprehension.
