Who wrote the following?
“I will here say that it is a mistaken idea, as entertained by the Calvinists, that God has decreed all things whatsoever that come to pass, for the volition of the creature is as free as air. You may inquire whether we believe in foreordination; we do, as strongly as any people in the world...We also are free to choose or refuse the principles of eternal life. God has decreed and foreordained many things that have come to pass, and he will continue to do so; but when he decrees great blessings upon a nation or upon an individual they are decreed upon certain conditions.”
That was said by President Brigham Young as quoted by the LDS (Mormons) in their web page:

It's interesting how many on this Christian Forum side with Brigham Young against Calvinists about predestination or foreordination. The Mormons are a non-Christian cult, not Christian.

Were we foreordained in our premortal life? A look into how God’s time and calls work
Everyone who believes in God at all believes that He knows what you and I are going to do tomorrow. But if He knows I am going to do so-and-so, how can I be free to do otherwise?
