Seems like faulty logic to me. Oh and if he did flood the entire world and noah did put everything on his ship let's say... did he also put on the ship kangaroos and other funky marsupials?

If he knows everything, why did he have to ask Cain where his brother was?
God isn't omniscient.

God can know everything but does not choose to take away free will by "knowing" the future of individual persons. The fruit was never identified as an apple. Noah put 2 of each of the unclean animals and 7 of each of the clean animals on the ark.

1) It wasn't an apple.
2) The Fall is a psychological allegory.
3) The Flood did not cover the whole earth.
4) Noah loaded up his own animals, not all animals.
Faulty logic is thinking that you know what the Bible says when you have not studied the original languages or actually read the text.

God knew that Adam and Eve would eat the apple! Good grief, okay, here we go....
The serpent that was in the garden was the devil... He tempted them with the apples from the tree of knowledge of good and evil which God told them was the one tree in the whole garden of eden that they could not eat from. Satan lured them into eating the apple, being sin because it was something God told them not to do. This is where free will entered into the world. Before this, Adam and Eve were basically robots. They could not do evil because they didn't know what it was. So sin entered the world because of Adam and Eve.
GOD KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN AND HE ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN. He did this, because he didn't want us to be robots, forced to love Him because we didn't know any better. He wants us to love Him because we choose to. This is not faulty logic..
And yes, EVERY LAND ANIMAL was represented on the ark..

He knew that they would eat from the tree, His knowledge encompasses everything that has happened and everything t hat iwll happen.
God gave us the capabililty of making choices, yet God is unlike anything and imcomparable to anything, thus He also knows what we will do with this capability.
"Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the creation.
To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight,
And you will not, unless (it be) that Allah wills, the Lord of the creation." [Qur'an 81:27-29]
may God guide you to the truth.

God gave them free will. God didn't force them to do or not do things. God gave them some, easy to follow, non painful, rules to follow and told them ahead of time what would happen if they broke the rules. Only one rule...not to eat the fruit of just one tree. Did they listen? Did they accept what He said and follow His easy instructions? NO. And we have been doing the same thing ever since then. Do people kill, lie, steal, etc.? You know it. Is it wrong, do we know not to do such things? Yes.Maybe God knew Adam and Eve would do the wrong thing but He didn't interfere. He let them do their own thing. He didn't force them. He gave them all they needed to know and the free will to obey or disobey.

Who said he didn't know? I knew, when my children were learning to walk, that they would fall, but I still let them do it.
About Noah, remember that the Bible is not a science book. It's a book about God. What does that particular story teach you about God? That he hates evil and violence, that he protects people who honor him, that he is in control of nature.

What sort of god would call it a fallen state when one gains knowledge? Why did the Bible use El for their god, the name of the Bull of Heaven from Babylon? Why does it also steal the title Adonis/Adonai from the Greeks? Also stole Venus' title of Agape "love feast".

have you ever seen mankind, regularly? What I advise is the component that makes people unique is their potential to earnings, comprehend, and make possibilities. No 2 human beings are a like. i think it is what God wanted, on no account to have all human beings have the comparable strengths, weaknesses, or needs. He does want all human beings to comprehend good from incorrect, and ultimately make their own selection as to what direction to stay with. i think God knew ( and knows of ) that throughout many ( maximum?) circumstances guy, who isn't suited, will could fail until now he succeeds. Our loving God has on no account mentioned in case you fail as quickly as, there is not any wish for you. that's a strategies-blowing present from God. once you're examined and fail yet surely seek for forgiveness and alter your way of existence, God will settle for you with hands open extensive. confident he might have formed each and every human strategies on no account to sin yet might that be him making the alternative for you or you making your individual selection. extensive distinction. Take a 2d and think of roughly whilst maximum people turn a hundred% to God. Is it whilst each and every thing is going super? of direction not. as a rely of actuality, we've seen returned and returned returned, throughout situations of disaster, the 1st words out of our mouth is, "Please God". those words are spoken without theory. they arrive freely without tension. God has one in all those suited plan for all, its impossible for the traditional individual to comprehend it. in basic terms have faith!

I think the fault lies in that God was upset when they gained knowledge. What kind of all powerful being wants idiots worshiping him? The bible says that God kicked them out of Eden for learning!!!
