If God is infallible, why did he regret creating people? Why did he have to drown his children?

Question

harold - you moron, god said it supposedll himself in the old testiment - see why we can't take you idiots seriously - you don't even know what your stinking Bible says.

Just One - I respect your answer. At least you admit you don't have all of the answers instead of making something up. Thumbs up to you my friend.

Answer 1

Honestly? That's a GREAT question! One that nags at Christians. See, I get the sense that you ask it in a mocking sort of way, as if you don't really want an answer, you simply want to needle Christians. Oh well.

The Bible is clear that everything in the Bible is true, but ... everything that is true is not in the Bible. Put another way: God does not reveal all. Nor does the Bible. ANOTHER example of a question that haunts and taunts Christians is, "Where did sin come from?" "WHY did God allow it to enter the world?" Those questions sort of precede yours, because the great flood was in response to fallen men wallowing in their depravity.

To be sure, God had a purpose for allowing sin into the world. He has a purpose for suffering long through out transgressions. We simply do not always know what those purposes are! But I would NOT read it that God regretted creating people. It's odd. I mean, He KNEW that He was going to allow sin to enter the world and what it would do to it. Yet, He seemingly hates what He allowed. Yes, Christians have such questions! And unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you OTHER than to correct some of the words in your question. God IS infallible. He did NOT make a mistake creating people. He did NOT regret creating humans. But ... He DID react angrily to the sins of those times and pretty much wiped out the world.

You could EVEN go farther and ask: "Why did God destroy the animals in the flood? They didn't do anything wrong!" Again, I have no answer.

Answer 2

Religion does not make experience. I consider that there's a main entity however I additionally consider that the bible was once written by means of men and women and is stuffed with contradictions. Most men and women are out of contact with the spirit global and those which might be in contact with it most effective recognize such a lot. I do not believe that we be trained approximately it appropriately till we die. I am just about special that I have had a beyond existence and the bible does not talk of that wherever. Spiritually the Christian faith could be very slender. It does not talk of ghosts, reincarnation, extraterrestrial beings or palmestry studying. All matters where I consider exists.

Answer 3

Of Course God is infallible. God is excellent. God never regret in creating peoples/human beings/mankinds. All Praise is for God.

I'm Muslim. I'm call to answer this questions. We Muslims belief in Jesus. We know what are in the bible. The main task of man kind as agent and leaders of God to this earth is to Worship the Creator. Mankind denied the Creator of Mankind. Prophet Noah, God's prophet ask his men to be the follower for more than 800 years preaching to worship God. They refused him and disobey God. Ref: Muslims Books: God ask Noah to built an Ark. Noah at the age of 800 years Noah planted the Trees for the 'Ark'. The trees was been cut down at the age of 100 years for building the Ark. 160 men and women as Noah followers excluding Noah's wife and son and Representative of animal sent by God in the Ark. Ref: 1. [(Chamber Essential English Dictionary.Ark; meaning; the vessel in which Noah escaped the flood (Genesis vi.-viii)]. Ref.2. Encyclopedia International; Volume 7., Page 177. 'Flood'. Quote " The upright Patriarch Noah, warned of the impending disaster, escaped with his family and a large number of selected animals by building a huge vessel, the ark. The flood exterminated all other living creatures, and then abated, depositing the ark on the mountains of Ararat (between the Caspian and the Black seas" unquote

During Noah, all the people are Paganeist Denied God as creator and Governor of the universe. Through the world flood, all that disbelief God died. There no more Paganeist.

All Worship God. These men spread all over the earth into various races, languages and later become one race and one nation. Some doesn't heard and learned on religion and some doesn't know about religion. Of course, they denied God and doesn't belief God. The said the universe exist on it's own. Boastingly, someones said, he/they themself are God. Is good most probably Noah time comes back to teach the lesson again, which is impossible because the world is too old and waiting the time to end.

Al-mighty God ALLAH SWT have never regret in creating human beings. God knows "Best" on his will. We mankinds have no right in commenting God's will. We human beings/mankinds is one of God's Creator. God always love all his children. Now, Many of his children are not loving him and not worship him as the creator and governor of the universe. If God want to destroy, thats are all his rights.

Answer 4

Cos ‘he’ is not real bright and ‘he’ is EVIL – in fact ‘he’ woulda made an excellent ‘devil’ – in fact I reckon the ‘devil’ is probably ‘the good guy’ in all this mythology – don’t forget we’ve only ever heard one side of the story.
LOL.

This is just MORE evidence that 'he' was constructed by men.
'He' shows 'he' has more than the average number of 'bad' characteristics and in far greater intensity than those of today's people in 'the west'.

As Richard Dawkins said so succinctly in The God Delusion: "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."

It's almost as if the god-manufacturers picked out the most obscene, hateful, evil, malevolent and scary characteristics anyone could ever have, hung a god on them and then had the audacity to say: But he loves you.

No wonder psychologists make good money from xians in trying to treat the paranoia they're programmed with from such an early age.

Answer 5

God regretted creating all people except for Noah who was the only person left who loved God. God allowed Noah's family to be on the Ark with him because of Noah's love and obedience to God. The people that God drowned were His creation but not His children. They were evil and that is why God destroyed them and their children. The babies who were not yet evil, are with God now. God gives and He takes away. Everything belongs to Him and is His creation http://www.answersingenesis.org/ The destruction will happen again but, not to God's children......

Answer 6

Simple -- there is no "God". The concept is a human invention designed to try and explain the mysteriousness of our very existence. It's like saying "a wizard did it".

Answer 7

people made them up ,

rev albert einstein doesnt make sense at all ,

if god exist and he knows the future , he is deliberately creating people and killing them and then burning them.

if you know putting explosive into an microwave oven , and then you still went on to put those explosive into an microwave oven and eventually cause an explosion , is it you to blame or the explosive or the oven ?

yet when such occurs all blame is shifted to just the explosive and oven.

sure he doesnt make choice for us , sure , but he already know that by creating adam and eve , billions of people will be burned eternally in hell , yet he still went on and creating adam and eve.

thus the only explaination is that he want to burn billions of people . if he is all love , he would create 2 heaven , 1st heaven with better stuff then the 2nd heaven , thus there will be no need for hell , but no , he decide to have a hell where he can burn people eternally

Answer 8

weird question... God created all of us and so he has the right to kill us all too... I guess.
He also didnt drowned any of his children, he drowned all the people that wouldnt accept him, I think he was trying to make a point, believe in me life will go better, I think if you had kids and they contstantly disobeyed you, you might lose some patience and say to yourself why did you ever create them, the only difference between you and God, is God can give or take peoples lives sence he made us... hope this made sence.

Answer 9

He is created by man and therefore very fallible. Personally (allegory or not) I would not take parental advice from some being who murders his own. On the parenting scale I don't think he rates particularly well!!

Answer 10

Because at the time there were no corners to tell kids to stand in. Hey, tough love had to start sometime!
