Recall from the Old Testament," the Babylonians had conquered and sacked Jerusalem and God does something astonishing, something He has never done before: He says sorry! He concedes that the Babylonian invasion—the overthrow of the Israelites He had planned for so long and with such evident enthusiasm--was actually a big mistake." [ From Blogging the Bible by David Plotz: The First, and Only, Divine Apology, Wednesday, Jan. 31, 2007 at http://www.slate.com/id/2157587/entry/2158732/
How can this be? A mistake commited by the all present, all knowing and supposedly infallable supreme being?
If "he knew you in the womb before ye were born" was his divine power on vacation when he punished the Isrealites with the Babylonian invasion without knowing that it a mistake in
advance of the action?
If your God is fallable how can your bible, as God's word, be held to be innerent?
