1 Samuel 15
How can your silly god regret anything. Surely, this "all-knowing" being knew how it would turn out when he picked fucking "Saul?" What's the point of being "all-knowing" if every time you turn around you are surprised that your fucking plans don't work out? Why didn't your boy pick "David" the first time around?
Oh, wait...
2 Samuel 12 7-11
That didn't work out so well, either. Why is your god such a fuck up? Why does he always pick the wrong man? If he were the personnel director for my company I'd fire his holy ass.
Quote:10 Then the word of the Lord came to Samuel: 11 “I regret that I have made Saul king, because he has turned away from me and has not carried out my instructions.”

2 Samuel 12 7-11
Quote:This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul. 8 I gave your master’s house to you, and your master’s wives into your arms. I gave you all Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more. 9 Why did you despise the word of the Lord by doing what is evil in his eyes? You struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and took his wife to be your own. You killed him with the sword of the Ammonites. 10 Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.’
11 “This is what the Lord says: ‘Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity on you. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to one who is close to you, and he will sleep with your wives in broad daylight. 12 You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.’”
