I'm sure this was/is an extremely heated topic in these forums; it has probably been asked countless of times. However, I wanted to get some recent (unbiased) perspectives in a hypothetical situation where an omniscient deity may exist. Can free-will coexist with a predestined route or 'Divine Plan' & if so, how? Does free-will exist at all?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.

The debate between free will and predestination is indeed fascinating. Some argue that free will can coexist with a divine plan if we view our choices as part of a larger tapestry woven by an omniscient deity. This perspective allows for personal agency while acknowledging a predetermined path. Speaking of choices, have you ever explored how personal experiences shape our views on freedom?
