Some have said, more or less, the omniscient being knows what you won't do because you can't do it.... if you can't do it, you can't choose it, thus you can't make a choice, thus no free will. So far the no one making this argument has explained the basis for the "won't because you can't" presupposition.

Is anyone going to step up to the plate and attempt to justify the assumption that knowledge that you won't do it requires that you can't do it?
