Because Yahweh* gets off on it:
Quote:8:20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth ; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
* "If it were to exist"
If he were omnipotent couldn't he have just magically created a 'sweet savour' for himself? He just loves messing with us...*
*"If it were to exist"
