Then again, MAYBE HE HAS already!
I mean, how would we know one way or the other?

I picture God switching his cosmic TV to the Earth Channel every hundred years or so, then promptly rolling his eyes, and saying to himself “Wow… they’re STILL killing each other.”
I don’t think he’d hit the reset button though. I imagine he’s curious whether or not we’ll ever actually start acting like we deserve the free will he gave us.

God could have wiped it all out any time he wanted to do so, but if he gives time for the earth to be populated at the resurrection of the heavenly for the new heavens and the earthly for the new earth, then the "RESET" button has been pressed and all the offsprings of Adam, get the same chance that Adam had, Rev.20:1-6,12,13; 1000 years with all new and perfect.
Eph.2:7; 3:21; The world with Jesus is without end. John 3:16; 2Pet.3:13; Rev.21:1-5; ALL IS MADE NEW. 1Cor.15:22-28,51-53; As in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

Unless He settles the issue that got the world the way it is today, the same problem would pop up no matter how many times the "reset" button is pushed. When your computer has a virus, you fix it; not just try to restart it a bunch of times. God wants the issue of his sovereignty solved.

he did with noahs arc and the great flood. also, scientist claim that the universe started with the big bang and that the universe is going back to that concentrated dot of matter and may start over again. if so, God my have hit the reset button an infinite number of times. :) stew on that. besides, God sent his son to die as payment for our sins so that regardless of what happens on this earth, we can have a relationship with God through Jesus, and when we die, we able to be with him in heaven.

I don't know.
I would sometimes like to find that button for my own life. I often look back at my own mistakes and wonder why I didn't know any better back then.
Sometimes....I wouldn't change a moment of it.

Well, He kinda did when He sent Jesus. I wonder if He hit the restart button on another planet. Maybe those folks weren't dumb enough to mess up their Garden of Eden or crucity Jesus.

According to the Bible, he already did (see: Great Flood).
Of course, it's obvious that didn't actually happen, but if it had, and assuming God exists and was responsible for it, it would call God's alleged perfection into question.
It makes no sense for an entity that's supposed to be perfect to ever have a need to "redo" anything he's done. A perfect creature cannot create imperfect things, yet here we are. I think it's just rationalization.

Why do you think God's keyboard is an extra large one with big buttons ?

According to the bible, she has done a do-over several times. She does not have a good track record. And then to blame all of her mistakes on "satan". She can't even take credit for her own mistakes.
