Space-time is not compatible with free will. We live in a space-time continuum that contains all of space and time. You have no choices, rather, you have the appearance of them due to the fact that you have the ability to speculate yet you lack access to the future. It's really THAT simple. God, i.e., that which truly IS, is that which decides, and God decides to do all that which is possible. In this particular sequence, you believe in God.
