Stories from different times, places, and authors are not expected to match in every detail. Because they don’t.
I wonder if theologians seriously have ever addressed this particular argument? They always seem to assume on the fly there is a God that isn't anything like that, yet even the philosophical God originates in human thinking rather than demonstrating itself to us.
