Ah, but if God is omniscient AND CAN FORESEE THE FUTURE (which has strong support in Christian and Judaic tradition writing - -what else is "prophecy"?) then the future MUST be deterministic, and modern physics clearly is incomplete or wrong (n either of which, of course, is impossible). So if the future IS deterministic, what is this "free will" illusion? And, in fact, there have been denominations of Christianity would followed something rather similar to that path. Think "Calvin".
