One must then wonder about an incredibly inept or wasteful creation in which virtually all animal species were doomed to extinction within a couple thousand years. Having dared to broach the subject of a God who seems less than omniscient (didn't He know all this was going to happen ahead of time?), consider also limited omnipotence. Why would God need a lengthy Flood to destroy miscreant humans? Why destroy billions upon billions of other living things? Why not simply snap His fingers and make all the bad people disappear? (Note to creationists who are seriously bent out of shape by these "sacrilegious" questions: this is not an attack upon the qualifications or abilities of the Almighty, but upon YOUR risible notion of Him and what He has done.) Did ALL those people deserve brutal and terrifying deaths? The children? The two-year-old little girls? The newborn infants? That's what I've been saying. It is completely impossible to give credence to the idea of a loving god who could be at the same time so brutal and disgustingly evil. All those children are supposed to have suffered horrible, terrifying deaths by drowning. So of course the Christian god is not loving. He's brutal and terrible and evil. |
