I post the following discussion topic from the Wall Street Journal’s Religion & Ethics Community Group for a number of reasons:

1. I’m somewhat bewildered by the group’s very existence on a business publication’s website.
2. It’s an interesting topic that has challenged thinkers for centuries.
3. The actual discussion is surprisingly civil.
4. There is obviously no editorial supervision in the WSJ Community.

Here’s the discussion kick-off:

How does Christianity believe in free will?

If good is all knowing.
If good is all powerful.
If good creates and has a plan for every life.

How can there be any free will at all?.
