Very good argument. I have used the same, but it only works on persons who have not sacrificed their mind for "faith." True Absolutists cannot understand such an argument. Most often, they just say that God is incomprehensible, thus such arguments do not apply.

Good arguments! Way more complicated than "Bullshit!"
How about, the god had freewill in the first instance? It freely chose between multiple options for the universe, nature, how things would run and turn out, and how the god would react to those characteristics, limitations and events. Thus the god had freewill, and all of the its own subsequent actions, were a direct result of an act of freewill on its part.
I'm sure that that argument must be full of holes, but it means that in that case, humans don't have freewill. The god is responsible for EVERYTHING, but by its initial freewill choice.
Furthermore, if this Sky Faerie does have free will, he ain't using it very good...
