djhwoodwerks,
Think!!! If God knew beforehand everything that any person was going to do, it would mean that God had all these wicked things that men did in His own mind. If God knew before they happened, it would mean that nothing ever done would be a surprise to Him. Remember, over some things that happened, God felt hurt in His heart, and some things he regretted, Genesis 6:5-7. Why would God feel regret, and destroy all people, except Noah and his family, if He already knew that the ruining of the earth was going to take place?? If God created men and placed them on earth and knew everything they were going to do before they did it, then the responsibility would be God's, because once God knows what is going to happen, in MUST happen that way, and especially, if it is written down. The evil that men would do would have been in God's mind before any man did evil.
For just the reason you stated, God does not look ahead, or foreknow men's actions, because if He did, people could say that they had no choice, because God had already decided their actions.
Remember, God is going to bring everyone to judgment for their actions, and it would be unjust if their actions were already preplanned, and God is always just in all His dealings, Deuteronomy 32:4,5, Job 34:10,12, Revelation 22:12, Romans 2:2-13.
When God created Adam and Eve, He created them perfect, and He stated what He wanted them to do, Genesis 1:26-28. They were created to live forever, they could only die, if they rebelled against God, Genesis 2:17. God had given them everything they could want. For all God's blessings, He gave them one way that they could show Him that they appreciated all the things He did for them, Do not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil !!! At that time three was no evil, the rebelling against God was the evil that they would know, if they decided to obey Satan instead of God.
