No, he does NOT control our actions. Even if he knows where we'll end up, it's still our choices that lead us there.

but if he started the long chain of events that eventually led to us then yes, he does control our actions. If you could map every single atom in the universe you could predict the future and see into the past. Although I realize this goes very deep into quantum mechanics and it doesn't work quite like that. god is supposed to have created everything, remember. Even the shockwaves from the "non-existant" big bang, and fossils from "non-existant" links in the chain of our evolution. If he created every single atom in existance, every single law of the universe. Every single dimension. He certainly well "programmed" the universe to act exactly as it is now, and that includes us.

But that doesn't mean he controls our CHOICES. We all can freely make a decision on what we believe.

Quote:

Then you should have no trouble accepting the faith of my new religion, the Invisible Purple Flying Unicorn? (She's invisible, so we don't know that she's purple, but we believe it to be so). I know your God forbids the worship of any other God, but in a hypothetical situation where the Invisible Purple Flying Unicorn got to you first, would you have a problem with worshiping her?

The only way she could have "got to me first" would be through my parents, so I possibly might have. I doubt that would hold up over time, though.

I cannot imagine how the clockwork of the universe can exist without a clockmaker. ~Voltaire
