I believe we are free to align our will with the will of the universe. The above vid touches on some of the issues associated with free will

What is the will of the universe?
Originally posted by @karoly-aczelIf within the scope of our existence there exists a being, any being, which can perceive all past, present, and future events with certainty then there is no free will. Only a false perception of free will would exist to those who cannot perceive past, present, and future events.

Originally posted by @karoly-aczelSimply because a being has knowledge of the past, present and future is, in itself, not necessarily an indication of divinity. Watching a rat make his way thru a maze would seldom make one divine.

You have a choice to poke your eye out with a fork or to not poke your eye out with a fork.
I can predict the choice you will make, but does that mean you are without free will?

Originally posted by @divegeesterI have explained this twice already but you do not comprehend my statements.
Let’s suppose then that not only can I predict accurately, because of my knowledge of you, which decision you will make, but I also know which decision you will make through prophesy. I am not determining your decision I just [b]see which decision you will make.
You are still free to choose.[/b]
