Im gonna ignore the grape part cuz that's just an addition to the already existing argument of free will and God's existence. You cannot just ignore the fact that God doesn't cause your action and I am going to explain why. That argument is fancy word play, it plays with words and definitions of free will without looking at WHY those definitions exist. I'll save you the trouble: The definition:~free will is when you do something you could have chosen to do differently DEPENDS on the idea of causation and whether something causes you to do something or not. Now, it is obvious that God's omniscience does not cause a human action, rather, the human action is the thing that causes what thing God knows regarding the event. In a within time context, the chain goes like 1. God knows that u choose A, 2. You choose A. But in a causal chain, REGARDLESS OF TIME (God is outside time) it goes like this: 1. You choose A, 2. God knows you choose A (that doesn't mean you cause his ability to know, you cause the fact that God knows your specific choice since the information depends on YOUR action). Now when the problem of causation is out of the way, you still insist "because the definition says this and that", when the definition itself means what it means because it relies on the idea of what causes your action (which is not God), so your argument collapses. That means it's word and definition play. If you ignore the talk about cause, your definition has no essence
