Ugh. Just had this predestination debate in English-- read the Crucible, now we're doing 'Puritan Things.' OK, God knows what we'll chose, but he still gives us the choice. It's still up to us. We still have to repent, whether or not He knows we will.

Frankly, I'm glad he didn't say 'humanity will be evil so I won't bither creating it.'
