If god knows all my choices before I am even created why does free will even matter? As for my undoing, better that then to waste the only life I will ever have worshiping a non existent entity.
Free will really matters a lot as he wants his followers to follow him by their own choice he doesn't make anyone do anything .
If they don't want to follow him then he is ok with it as he knows all the foolishness coming from mankind and he knows the total out come .
You're free to mock and laugh at him and you will receive the consequences of that free will choice you have made .
I think the reason Atheists are so anti-God is the fact they do not want to live by the moral laws he has put in place !
All I can say Pet is sometime in the future you WILL die as we all will and then you will Believe in the God you love to mock and it will not be good thru out all eternity of torment !

Again, labels are how we define the world around us. If you think they mean nothing I don't know what to tell you. And if you believe the world is square then you are believing in a lie and to teach those beliefs is to make those you teach liars. As for my children we taught both to think rationally but never discussed religious beliefs one way or another. My son is working on being an atheist and may arrive there one day and my daughter is agnostic...okay?
PeterS... If you define the world around you thru labels, you're using book titles to evaluate what a novel is about without reading it... And teaching that approach to life to others is a ridiculous...

...I also believe that my Atheism is My Belief System... That I can, and do, allow every one of we humans to believe whatever we feel is correct... But also, that we humans must allow others to disagree with our beliefs and still live together civilly...
There were times in Jewish history when they believed whatever they "felt was correct" and see where it got them?

But there is far more evidence indicating that evolution happened (is happening) than there is for creationism.
If the second law of thermodynamics states that the universe is becoming less orderly and evolution requires that things become more orderly, how can evolution be true?
