Surely a all knowing all powerful being that created everything cannot exist in the same universe as a being with free will, because there would be no such thing as free will, only the will of the all powerful being. I know its been said before, but without drastically changing the definitions of "free will" or "all powerful", the idea of them both existing contridicts itself.

It's a common belief that we are all a part of god, but we just don't know our origins.
Maybe at the begining we made all our "Free" choices and now we are living them out. So it was actually God and us both (Since we are part of god)that made the choices.
This could be why god knows everything, as well as us having made the free choice.
If you understand that.

That sure makes a lot more sense than the choices we make being the result of the layout of neurons in our brains in relation to the stimuli said brains recieve. Oh wait...
