Default To free will advocates...

I conjured up this example about 8 months ago, and I never started a thread for feedback purposes. Let me know what you think.

How about a non-moral, non-theological example to follow?

Let's try a football game as an example.

It's the Super Bowl and the Chicago Bears are up by two with one second left in the game. The Miami Dolphins are kicking a 42 yard field goal for the win.

As we see in many sports events, when championships are on the line, you see players exert their never before seen relationship with God by praying for the victory. Does God know the outcome of the field goal kick?

For all who care to answer, please be clear as to whether you affirm or deny that God is aware. I'm looking to see what kind of definitive stances there are for this.
