    I told you it is a flawed logic and reason, because that means we do not have to live through this as God would take the most efficient path, i.e. immediate judgment. How hard can it be to understand that?

    You cannot have knowledge of what has not happened, unless you do not control what is about to happen like a dictator, which obviously God could do but does not. Anyways a strong mind becomes independent as it takes its place in the world, and if sufficiently strong nothing can affect it.

    Predestination does not work in practice, it falls logically.

    what is in the womb of mothers is in the awareness of God . he know what will grow by his limited knowledge what person will do by his actions... God is not responsible for his actions but God is already aware about his actions are totally two different things... whats so difficult in it to uderstand...

    The reason is that it does not hold by logic. His life has no purpose to begin with as he cannot control anything, he is like a puppet and God controls him like some kind of voodoo doll as I wrote thrice I think.

    its mean God is limited= knowledge limited= knowledge of outcomes limited..

    contradict with your own defination of infinite God... oh my gosshhhhhhhh

    It does not necessarily make God finite. Like I wrote you cannot have knowledge of what has not happened, unless you already made the plans like a movie beforehand. It does not mean you lack knowledge as the time sequence does not exist, not at that moment. A person who has not yet killed another man has also not killed the man, he is only guilty by the time he kills the another man. Before he killed the man, that fate was not yet created. We are that much in control of our fates, it is a privilege, God is seeking to develop independent minds in His/Her/Its own. We are here because we struggle to become adept like God, perfect specimens. God is developing "clones" of Himself/Herself/Itself in order to expand His/Her/Its Grand Consciousness. This is a more or less true passage from the Genesis part of Bible (the translation is overall decent compared to other parts) "God made man in His own image". Man's Spirit is a seed/share/part of God while the body with its weak functionality is the world's contradiction and as a process of "filtering" out impurities all the seeds were attached to bodies for a very advanced trial in immense delusion (i.e. the seat we are in right now sitting here in our bodies while often not being aware of the truth). In the end when the test cycle is over the impurities will be removed like weeds are picked and withered while the fine specimens are part of God's expanded Grand Consciousness.

    In summary everything is a purification process, more strong minds mean a far more superior ultimate mega mind in its unity. We work together, those of us who managed to develop ours minds, so we are like the Borg in Star Trek. The separate one God distinct from us is a religious fabrication. We are like a drop of the ocean and the ocean is God.

    Be well

      why did God split it up himself, what was the need?

      why filtering everybody through pain, hardship, tests, misery, hunger?

      what benefit God is getting from all this?

      if you think like human.. u have answers, if you think like God you get more confuse... becoz simple we r not a part of God ,creation is in need of creator ,,, creator is free of any need....

      there was a creation... hence God created it , creation accepted it... or according to your theory God is asking from self or some parts of himself to take that test... o why will i give myself pain...

      according to you what is the purpose of doing all this ... big stage of life having characters in it,, some full of righteousness and some full of shit... who are all they.(faulty parts of God)?

        Peace Amenuel,

        I quoted verses from the quran that clearly imply God does not know certain things and yet people keep arguing otherwise. It is impossible and futile to argue with those "muslimeen" who don't believe/trust what the quran itself says or don't accept quranic evidence.

        Also note those verses create CLEAR contradiction with 573 which uses the same word from the root "ayn-lam-miim". I have read past posts on this and no one here on this forum has been able to resolve this contradiction in the last 10+ years without resorting to deliberate misinterpretation.

        Peace

          Truthseeker,

          God knows everything as it occurs, but created us with powerful mind potential (actually the same image as Himself/Herself/Itself). The future does not exist as God awaits what path each one of us will take in order to evaluate our worthiness. God knows what path we take, but not what path we Will take (before we take the path), like you said yourself. However God will know our intention by the mere thought.

          It is the path we take which God is waiting for in order to see those who are fit to be managers.

          Be well

            It is like randomly spreading out seeds in a garden and then see which plant will grow best. Each seed has a gardener and the sanity of each of them determines the outcome of the plant and God will only pick the best fruits of the most developed cultivation.

            The best seeds landed on fertile soil, were watered and the weeds kept away. Those with no sound foundation, poor watering and lots of weeds will not develop well and the fruit small and tasteless if the cultivation even becomes ripe instead of withering before completion.

            This parable I am not the first one to use, but it is a good one. The garden parable is very analogous.

            Be well

                another finding about God , that God awaits brickwall ,, its same like a judge waits for the performance in the show to give prize to winner...

                RED so infact God have no control on creation... if some crazy soilder wanted to finish world he can do it with hydrogen bomb or if some atom get explode by the mistake of scientist all humanity get destroyed ,, its mean any state can bring judgement day like terminator 2 before the appointed time set by God.. isnt it... i remember a verse BTW

                ?And Zal Nun (Jonah), when he went off in anger, and he thought that We would
                not be able to take him. Then he called out in the darkness ?There is no god but
                You! Glory to You, I was of the wicked!?? (Quran 2187)

                  I never read anything in Quran that suggests that Allah is ignorant! What happened
                  to the All-knowing?

                  i still wonder about the ignorance of God, how he manage to create the billions of galaxies spinning without having an accident...

                  i still wonder why sun did not get his energy finish or need a charging wire....

                  i still wonder how God manage to make a creation that have emotions like human beings...

                  i still wonder how an ignorant God knows future events as well as past with exact accuracy... none of them proved wrong yet...

                  i still wonder how an ignorant God create an intelligent design which is itself a miracle...

                  i still wonder how can an ignorant God create all this and we are unable to create a fly , instead if fly snatch something from us we are unable to get it back...

                  is that ignorance or lack of knowledge... lets check the height of knowledge of the creator who i know....

                  if all the trees are pen and all the oceans are the ink ,,,
                  the words of your lord will not run out even if you double the supply of ink...Allah is noble and wise 31 27

                  interestingly this chapter end with a superb verse which i m presenting here now...

                  3134 Verily, with God alone rests the knowledge of when the Last Hour will come and He sends down rain; and He knows what is in the wombs, whereas no one knows what he will reap tomorrow, and no one knows in what land he will die, Verily. God is all-knowing, all-aware.

                  inna AllahaAAaleemun khabeerun... used plantey of times in quran... to make us understand ... he is well aware of everything...

                    Peace everyone,

                    AL-3ALEEM or 3ALEEM as an attribute of God cannot be translated as "ALL-KNOWING" in the quran.

                    If "al-3aleem" or "3aleem" can be translated as "all-knowing" then "al-wadood" (8514) or "wadood" (1190) can be translated as "all-loving", which would mean God loves everyone, even the aggressors and those who cover the truth. But according to the quran God does not love everyone (2190, 2276, 332, 357, 3140, 436, 4107, 564, 587, 858, 2238, 2876-77, 3118, 5723).

                    Actually God does not love majority of people, because majority of people will set up partners (12106) and thus God will never forgive a majority of people (448, 4116) and put them in fire (572) with no chance of forgiveness. Still God can have attribute of "al-wadood".

                    This proves by quranic evidence that "al-wadood" or "wadood" as an attribute of God in the quran cannot mean "all-loving" but can only mean "the loving". So an attribute of God in the quran cannot give the meaning of "all".

                    This indirectly proves that "al-3aleem" or "3aleem" as attribute of God in the quran cannot mean "all-knowing", but can only mean "the knower" or "knowing".

                    Peace

                      i eat the apple = direct
                      the apple is eaten by me = indirect...

                        Quran 4064] God is the One who rendered the earth habitable for you, and the sky a formidable structure, and He designed you, and designed you well. He is the One who provides you with good provisions.* Such is God your Lord; Most Exalted is God, Lord of the universe.

                        according to this verse God is providing provisions.. but hold on a second... i get food from my mother and now i m living another country so its the take away that provide the food and if nobody is there i cook myself...

                        indirectly this verse is not true becoz God did not provide me a food... hence here is the proof....

                        rotfl rotfl rotfl

                        the one who rejects will reject every single verse if he wants to... depend on the understanding...

                                Unseen is a word you could also translate secret.

                                The passage you qouted does not say God knows the future. It says through all time God was there in any location.

                                The future is not written for then what we live through is redundant. It is weak logic to argue otherwise.

                                Be well

                                  future is also secret/hidden/unseen ! from the eyes of human... but not from God..

                                  here is another example...

                                  3134 Verily, with God alone rests the knowledge of when the Last Hour will come and He sends down rain; and He knows what is in the wombs, whereas no one knows what he will reap tomorrow, and no one knows in what land he will die, Verily. God is all-knowing, all-aware.

                                  hmm

                                    The "all" in your translation is not in the Arabic. It uses AL but that only marks the word is an adjectival attribute to the subject. When two AL-words follow each other it often mean there are two adjectives after each other or there is an adverb and adjective together (depending on word form).

                                    Be well

                                      dnt forget our past was once future...

                                      dnt forget our present was once future and continously traveeling towards future...to make it past....

                                      time is reletive lol

                                      tick tick tick.... these three ticks of clock right now will give you one tick of past one of present and one of future....

                                      my brother ... its not mine interpretation these are certified translations by the scholars who are more aware about language than me and you obviously...

                                      RED if he planned last hour then what is so difficult to understand he can plan everything... but again his plannings and our actions are two diffferent things... as well his awareness or knowing

                                      what we will do he already know it becoz he is fully aware of everything of past and present and future.. it does not mean he is responsible for our actions... we have given choices but he is aware what choice we will pick...

                                      if he create the law of time he must be aware about all the mechanism of time...

                                      God is unednding loop of knowledge , our knowledge may have limit but he got unlimited knowledge...

                                        3134 With God is the knowledge regarding the moment. He sends down the rain, and He knows what is inside the wombs. No person knows what it may gain tomorrow, nor does any person know in which land it will die.

                                        God is Knowledgeable/all-knowing/Omniscient/God is Knower

                                        Ever-aware/ Expert/all-aware/Cognizant/Aware

                                        i make it split more with all possible meanings which all give one common understanding... even if you skip all in it

                                          Knowing does not mean you know what has not happened yet as it is not in existence.

                                          In your passage nothing indicates that the future is predestined.
