Quote:A simple explanation would be a divine spirit which is perfect in wisdom, knowledge and power.
That leaves Yahweh the Bloody-Handed out in the cold.... as the Greeks knew long ago.
Quote:"God does not inflict correction on the world as if he were some unskilled laborer who is incapable of building something properly the first time around; God has no need to purify what he has built by means of a flood or a conflagration (as they teach)."
Celsus c 180
How come the Greeks dreamed up a god who was perfect but xtians can only imagine a schlepper who has to keep doing things over?
