That's not an actual answer though, it's just a politician's "answer" and then pretending afterwards that the question was answered. Free will means you can change your mind. If you can change your mind, it's possible that you would change your mind at the very last second. However, if it's possible to know ahead of time with 100% certainty what someone will do, then they don't actually have the ability to change their mind at the last second, and any concept of choice is an illusion.

The second quote only addresses why god isn't at fault if free will exists, and therefore doesn't address the issue
