What do you mean by destroy them ? that God made humans mortal ? in what way does that contradict omniscience...??

Because it destroys your argument ? why are you scared of the free will response ?

Why not create the correct version in the first place?
All the "versions" of messages as originally inspired by God are correct, it's just that the more recent messages supercede the older ones, that's it.
Now why didn't God inspire the last definitive message from the head start? Maybe people back then weren't ready, maybe their culture was still inadequate, etc. There are many answers that one can think of. If even I can think of plausible answers and reasons, God surely has much better reasons for doing that.
Wipes humans out. This was quite clear.
No. "Free will" is a meaningless, cowardly term used by theists when they can't justify their beliefs.
