But a god that reacts in sync with time isn't an omniscient god. If you knew everything that was, is, and will be, then you wouldn't have typical
emotional reactions that follow consequence - reaction.
For example, let's put you in god's shoes. You get lonely, you want to make a friend. You know that by making this friend and putting him in your
backyard, he will eat your magical fruit, kill your son, and then continue to poison the land and spill other's blood.
You create him anyway because you know he will adore you.
Why do you get mad when he does the above? You knew his actions were coming, and you did them anyway because you know he'll love you. Unless the god
of the literal Bible is putting on some kind of dramatic play for an audience we can't see, it doesn't make a lick of sense. That's one of the
logical fallacies of the (literally interpreted) Bible.
And unless I'm mistaken the Bible gave dominion over the Earth to men, so why would he make them animals very much subservient to nature's processes
and fellow species?
I think the more likely theory of Christianity and Evolution is that we evolved naturally on this planet and that there is a creator, but we can only
interpret it through our very skewed, very animal minds. And that's how we get things like the Bible!
