This episode of the egg timer takes a look at the implications that God's foreknowledge has for free will.  If God knows all there is to know about the future can people make free choices and can those free choices involve alternative possibilities for the person making the choice?  William James thought the answer was yes, tune in to find out why he thought this and how well his view stands up.
