Yeah, because God HAS seen the future. You said the problem word with the question was "already". Now it's "has". If I change the question again, what's the next problem word... seen? Live? God?
let's take an aside before I rephrase the question (or if there is even a need to rephrase it). Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:
God has seen the future
If you agree with this statement, then there's no need to rephrase the question. If you disagree with it, then my point is proven anyway.

my friend I have given the correct answers but you have the free will to belive in what you want to belive, so live out what ever you
choses to belive, and good luck by
walk this earth to search and find.
and if you find the truth dont hide.
for this may be your last day to try.
Yea you can that is your free will. You make your choices not God, If we didn't have free will then we would be perfect and not living in a life of sin. God knows what you are going to do in the future but that does not mean he made that decision for you.
iam glad sombody understands logic

once again past tence

So since it's past tense, it's not a valid question? Are you saying it's not a fair question to ask if God, at any time in the past, has looked into the future? I think it's a completely fair question, and no matter how many times you say you've answered the question, you really haven't. Sorry, you've answered my question once, but completely misinterpreted what the question said and actually rearranged the question.
My question is actually quite simple. Let's go over your interpretation of my question.

This is not what my question asks, my question does not assume that we have already lived our lives. In fact, it asks "can I live my life..." which actually indicates that it is a question about the present and the future. So I'm not quite sure where you're getting this "already lived our lives" part.
Without the subject matter, the question reads "Can I do ______ (something in the future) if _________ (something from the past.
if we were to change the subject and ask the same type of question, we might have an example such as "Can I (still drive my car) if I've (busted my stering wheel)".
the answer would be
"yes, you can but you're almost guranteed to get into an accident" or
"no, newer cars disable themselves if a critical part of the car is not functioning (hypothetical answer, of course)"
It's not that hard to answer this question ,so I fail to see what's "wrong" with my question.
And Snickle's "logic" has contradicted itself. Therefore, it's not logical. You might want it to be, but it isn't. My previous post states why.

I don't see why you've been dodging and then misinterpreting my question.

I assure you, the argument doesn't go round and round when you understand the question.
"Can I live my life any differently than the way God has already seen it happen?"
to
"can you live your life differently thenGods will for your life?"
That's a completely different question.
The 'already' refers to what God's has seen of the future (namely, all of it), not if I've already lived my life. He has already seen the future, because if he didn't, He wouldn't be all knowing. And not being all knowing would invalidate His entire existence.
But, if it pleases you, I'll rephrase my question, and drop the 'already'. The basis of the question remains the same, it really makes no difference.
Can I live my life any differently than the way God has seen it happen?
NO! You can't. He knows every move you will make in the future. Example, if you reply to this post, he knows what you're gonna say regardless of how many times you change your mind before posting.

now the question becomes "does this negate the concept of free will?" by giving the deity complete foreknowledge you have turned us into puppets enacting a prewritten script with no say as to its outcome. this would seem to make reality itself a rather pointless exercise and its creator a fool for the redundancy of the whole thing.
