No one should question His judgement, would you give your children 20 years to take out the trash after you asked them to. I doubt you are that patient and I know I'm not.Wait wait wait, didn't He create man in the first place? So created man, saw that it didn't quite turn out right, which is basically His own fault, so as a mature reaction to His own failure He goes along and DROWNS everyone else?
Couldn't he have just left them alone doing what they pleased and build a new planet somewhere else in His universe, just mark it down as a practice run? No, He in His omnipotent, omniscient benevolence just goes and floods the entire thing.
What a dick!
Let's not forget that the first thing this totally non-evil Noah, a just and perfect "preacher of righteousness", did after making landfall with his magic boat was to slaughter one of every clean (and by now critically endangered) species and burn them so Yahweh could "smell a sweet savour". Then he planted a vineyard, got pissed out of his gourd on the crop, exposed himself to his children in his drunken stupor and cursed his grandchildren just because their parents saw him naked. Now there's a wholesome lesson for you!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
