Perfectly rational, with a libertarian free will are not two ways I have ever
described God, or seen in scripture. I don't think of Him as tall or short either.

But what you have just told me/us, means that the god you believe in doesn't
have libertarian free will.
I'm not saying that's a problem, I'm just saying that that is what you are saying means...
or it is at least one of the things it means.
And that you shouldn't have any problem with the part of the argument in the OP that
says that god is not free.
So the interesting question for you, is now...
Given that you don't believe god is free and thus accept the position C1...
Do you now agree with C2 which states...
(C2) From (C1) & (4), God is also not an appropriate object of praise (or blame) regarding His choosing to A.
With (4) and (C1) for reference...
Freedom of will is necessary for moral responsibility. So in particular:
(4) For God to be an appropriate object of praise or blame regarding His choosing to A, it must be that God freely chose to A.
(C1) Therefore, God's choice to A was not free.
And if not, why not?
