Can I be free to perform an action if God has decided to ensure that I do not choose that action? I show that Molinists and simple foreknowledge theorists are committed to answering in the affirmative. This is problematic for their status as theological incompatibilists.

However, the path is not easy here either, since Leibniz has shown how theological determinists can offer an extremely robust form of sourcehood.
