The difficulty with Molinism is that
it does not explain the origin of the conditionally free action which God
foreknows. It is difficult to contend that God does not coerce human free action
if this conditional action does not derive from Him, and if it does not derive
from God, one must ask how God knows it. (“Molinism,” in Our Sunday Visitor’s
Catholic Encyclopedia, ed. Peter M. J. Stravinskas [rev ed.; Huntington,
Ind.: Our Sunday Visitor, 1998], 680)
