So how do we know that God was surprised or wrong? From human understanding? From an allegorical story? That God was 'surprised' that Adam & Eve would disobey him, he already knew because he already knows everything to the end of time. Setting up the physical reality that plays out its natural course. It could do no other.

Time and location defines our identity. Even clones have separate identities.Says who Saerules? Natural physics? My God is non temporal. Shame you missed the discussion with Jon Paul where he explained this. Nothingness is never empty. If you assume God is temporal then you assume a different God to me.
