I was watching a news segment about a kid who got shot coming out of a liquor store. The mother was on camera talking about how it was sad but that "everything happens for a reason". That got me thinking, if the omnipotent, omniscient God wanted that to happen for some reason, wouldn't the shooter be carrying out God's will? Some may point out free-will, and I understand that God knowing what will happen and free will can coincide, but God's charted plan and free will are a contradiction in themselves. How can an infaliable perfectly laid out plan by an omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent being be affected by anything including free will?
