sounds like an extremely elaborate cope for how an all-powerful all-knowing all-good deity could still be forced into letting bad things happen. It's just an easier version of the trolley problem for God; you're all-knowing so you can see that the trolley is going to hit someone, but you're all-powerful and can literally do anything so you can save everyone AND let the murderous trolley driver have free will, but you choose not to because...that's not within your editorial purview? Except maybe it is;
>but God chooses the version where His goals are achieved through their free choices.
If you're prevented from making certain choices by God editing that version of reality out, how is that different for me from just being forced to make other choices? And you're tacitly admitting that things like babies getting killed by suicide jumpers must be one of the "goals" in this case?
I mean really, step back and look at how particular and complicated you have to be in order to even make a lame attempt at saving God from responsibility for his creation. Do you really think you have to work this hard because your point is true?
It all just boils down to priests wanting people to credit God for everything good and blame everything bad on themselves so they'll keep showing up on Sunday and paying their tithe. If it doesn't make sense they don't care, they're propagandists, all that matters is that the unwashed masses behave in the required direction.
