As I said:I think what kidd means is that it is a possibility that god can see the possible future from the way things are playing out for us at our moment in time. It's subject to change, but if left unchanged it heads down a foreseeable path.
Like if you got on a train to China, you will end up in China. But along the way your path can be altered, when the track splits, and you may not end up in China if there is intervention divine or otherwise that leads you down a different track.
I equate time travel to Lucre's explanation because since god is outside time as Lucre claims and explain, he would know what choices will be made not only by the person on the train, but also all choices that would be made with regards to the train. As such, he knows whether you will reach China, even before you have even thought of going china, he already knows that you will think of and choose to go China. He knows which train you will choose, who are the occupants, the time, the weather, everything. In short, 'he knows'.But when I say omniscience, it means that not only does god knows what choices I have, he already knows what I am going to choose.
Therefore, if god is omniscience as RCC likes to claim, then he can only be one of two things,
1) a sadist that just pay lip service to helping us while he enjoy the tragedies that occur or
2) free will is fake and he is a sadist
There is no 'most possible future' when someone knows everything. There is only one.
While the above is in reference to time travel, it is relevant to Lucre's claim that god is outside time, in that to us living in the present there are plenty of possible futures, but for god, who is outside time and knows everything there is only one outcome and thus it is set in stone.Daniel Greenberger and Karl Svozil proposed that quantum theory gives a model for time travel without paradoxes. In quantum theory observation causes possible states to 'collapse' into one measured state; hence, the past observed from the present is deterministic (it has only one possible state), but the present observed from the past has many possible states until our actions cause it to collapse into one state. Our actions will then be seen to have been inevitable.
