And why exactly didn't God do this ?
Given that the traditional view of God is that He is Omnipotent ,Omniscient etc. why then should such a being create anything as imperfect as Humanity ?
Does it mean that if God does in fact exist He would be afraid of other entities as powerful as Himself ?
Does God enjoy the fact the we are weak pitiful creatures who He knows will make mistakes? Mistakes that He can then punish us for
And if that is so how sadistic is that ?
