No we weren't granted free will. Even that has been debunked with MRI scans. Everything you think you consciously choose is unsonsciously fired in the brain a few millieconds before you realise it. Also, I'm limited because of my genetics. Your god is unfair.
Then again, he should do it to:
- prove he is real since he is so sensitive and uppity about non-belief
- return the world to that state you say he wants so much, he is the one wanting it after all, us atheists don't
- atheists have more power than theists because our non-belief and our knowledge of physics gave us the powerful weapons that your faith alone can't fight. you can't pray to deviate a guided missile from an atheist fired against a theist. You can't because prayer is
bullshit. Atheists know this and you can't proselytise us into believing your medieval, primitive non-sense.
