And people pray to this incompetent deity? [dprjones mirror]

I love you. You are a man after my own heart. I have had "Christians" who tell me that death, disease, and suffering were all a part of God's original "very good" creation. Obviously, the Bible says that these things did not exist before sin came into being. Which man brought into being when he choose to reject God's plan for his life.

God knew where Adam was, but He wanted Adam to come on his own to God. Asking where someone is can be like asking your best friend, who is betraying you, what he is doing. The answer is known, but the point of the question is not to obtain information.

Also, it has been calculated how much room would have been taken up by the animals on the Ark. It was 1 deck. The other two would have been empty. People in that world chose to reject the free gift of salvation. God sent a flood, but ppl chose.
