It is often argued that free will is logically inconsistent with God's omniscience. A counter to this argument I have heard is that just because God can know everything, does not mean that he does, and that he can choose not to know certain things.
How is it possible to choose not to know something without already knowing it?
I ask because I am taking an introductory philosophy course which is currently examining the Argument from Evil and the Free Will Theodicy, and I am attempting to understand how it would make sense that God could limit his own omniscience and still be omniscient.
