[Avodah] God who knows the future

[garry]

I am missing a big chunk of this discussion.  I simply don't see the 
mystery.  Why does knowledge = control?

I am training a newly-adopted dog.  If I leave him in a room with food 
on the floor, he will eat it.  He has complete freedom of choice (a 
better-trained dog might not), but there isn't the slightest doubt what 
his choice will be.

Now a) humans aren't dogs and b) even for a dog there are choices I 
can't predict.  But the fact  remains the same.  The fact that I know 
what choice he will make doesn't have any effect at all on his freedom 
to make it.
