On saturday you will cross the street at 12 pm and you will be hit by a car and killed. how do you know that i wouldn't be able to change that? hmmmm? i still have a choice to cross the road at that time, or chose not to. perhaps! But since goddoesn't come down and tell us what the furtue holds for us then what i just said is redundant. isn't?just because someone knowswha tis gonna happen to someone doesn't mean he made it happen.

Well, assuming that god came down and said that to you ... I would say that you have no choice as to whether or not you could cross the road. Unless the nature of god is something other than what I am working from. As I said before, I am working from two assumptions: 1) God's knowledge is truth. It is not wrong. 2) God never lies.
If we agree that these two things are true (for the sake of this arguement), then I do not see how you can avoid getting hit by the car. If you did avoid it, then either assumption 1 or 2 would be false. Either god didn't know your future with divine certainty, or he lied to you when he told you what would happen to you.
