In His own image .....

That's what free will is, right? Making choices? His ability to choose was not impared. He made the choice to pull the trigger. But the consequences of that action were interrupted.

The first time, yes. But if God keeps doing it, that's another story. After a while it gets out that God is stopping bullets, and murder is effectively impossible. Suddenly everyone knows they can't choose murder, because God won't let it happen. For all intents and purposes, the decision to kill someone is out of our hands.------------------

And that's bad how, exactly?

Well... I can wax on about how the decision to do good means nothing if the possibility of doing bad isn't there, etc etc. But I'm sure you've heard it before. My only point was that recurring interference by God would impede free will. Whether that would be good or bad is a whole other ball of wax.------------------
