So being that God knows it, how are we, as mere humans, supposed to be able to truly have total free will? God knows it will happen so there for we can't change it, even its something as simple as breathing for 1.34 seconds or 1.35 seconds. Since God knows how long we are going to breathe how can we exert our total free will and change so that we breathe for 1.56 seconds?

It also brings to mind the Heisenburg Uncertainty Pricipal, which says as you know more about the momentum of a given electron the less you know about the position of it and vise versa. This is just a fancy way of saying that when something is observed it is changed. So being that God knows our decision before hand he has, in affect, taken away our total free will, has he not?
