but i was elso told that god knows wut you are doing, going to do, and wut you are thinking. and that hes the one who decides every ones fate but hes the one that decides if we sin or not and that we have to be punished for wut we cant control thats just stupid and unbeilievable.

Oh well, at least it gives you someone to blame for your inability to write coherently.

actually...the best answer to this question gives u islam..i myself do not have full knowledge but i`ll try to clarify it for u..Allah(SWT) made everything and everyone..and before anything He wrote a Book that is with Him..which we might also call destiny..even though He knows what we will do and He has written already what will do, good or bad. That is on the basis of His superior knowlegde..He is All Knowing.but this does not affect in any way what we indulge in whether its good or bad..it is the prior knowlegde of Allah about His creatures.i will give a small example.. a teacher knows, before the examination, about his students that who will stand first and who will fail...and after the examination the prediction is correct as the teacher knows his students well... at the same time it should be kept in mind that the passing and failing was not because of what the teacher thought..it was only becuase of the prior knowledge of the teacher about his student...hope that`s the answer to the question...

Yes, there is a God. It is evident in the trees, the flowers, and all of creation. He made us, but gave us free will to decide what we wanted to do. We make decisions and we are rewarded or punished by our decisions. He knows everything about us, and He even knows if we are going to sin, which hurts Him, but He gave us free will to do it anyway.

I don't think there is a God, but in the end everything people say on the matter is pretty much an opinion. If you actually go and look at the evidence for and against God you will see it's not in his favor. Do the reading and you'll figure it out.

You're right!!
It's just stupid, and TOTALLY Unbelievable!!
I'm afraid it's just one of those archaic dogmas that has been hard to shake off in religion.
Fortunately, there were only ever a few Christian religions who actually wholeheartedly believed in Pre-destination like that!!
Most now understand that god obviously, gives us Free choice in every single thing we do, and nothing has ever been pre-planned, in terms of our behaviour.
Having said that, I hope you are able to follow what I am about to tell you:
That all things - both - past, present and future are ever-present before God, for He knows them all.
In other words, only we, here, experience a thing called 'Time'!!
For God, there basically is no time!
He lives in Eternity.
In Eternity, all things are ever present before Him.
Nothing exists as a past, present or future!
Although WE make all of our life's choices, they are all known unto God - even those we experience as 'Future' -for even those choices are present before Him.
A bit hard for us to conceive here, with our finite minds, but that is your answer.

Wrong, while it is true God knows what you are going to do and when you are going to do it, He still leaves that choice to you. It's kind of like when you have children. I bake some cookie for my 4 year old daughter and place a big cookie and and small cookie on the plate, I know she is going to choose the big cookie, but I still ask her, "Which one do you want"?

God does controll all of that, but He tests us to see if we are strong enough to fix the problem instead of make them worse. It's really not unbelieveable either, it's the way God wants life to be.

There are many pagan gods, but only One God, Who is not out side in other part, or in a castle, it is in His Creation, but with different density. In a rock has low density, in a plant is even more present, and in you is even much more present if with sincere heart you look for it. Please do not worry about that. In stead, you may become to be a teacher for a lot of people, if you encourage them become to be more conscious about the value of their Life, in order all of us have a transcendent life and all of us become to be: "Genuinely Sincere, Grateful and Respectful with The One Who gave us Life, with Mother nature and with ourselves" You are a teacher of welfare and you are making a lot of suitcase to put in for your last trip. As a gift for you, please find my book: "AWARENESS, The Meaning of Life" (VANTAGE PRESS NY, NY $18.95) free and complete for you in the URL shown below. Sincerely

No, that's Santa, except instead of deciding fate, he decides whether or not you get presents.
Make your own decisions and use punctuation
