even an omniscient being is limited by the initial value problem
One of the things I am saying is that if any being can predict the future, with certainty, then our universe is deterministic, which basicly means there is a fixed future for it. There are many variations on this theme, but it all boils down to the fact that if anything can predict the future then we are governed by fate and not free will. This violates one of my axioms and therefore I say it can't happen.
