Conceivably you could prove that mainstream theologians have held to that kind of idiocy.
But I'd like to think that most of the biblical authors knew better.
I don't need the Bible to be entirely free from contradiction, but I do believe it's consistent on the major issues.
You might like to think that, but you would be wrong. Magic book's authors had an even more idiotic view of god than you, or the classical philosophers who cleaned it up. What you clearly need.....if you want to get away from constantly hamstringing your attempts at a rational explication, is to ditch magic book. It's a millstone around your neck. Every time you've said something phenomenally stupid thusfar it's in service of protecting magic book.

In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
