Do you find it easier to make excuses for faulty logic when you change the details of the original line of thought being defended.It's not pure speculation for an Omnipotent God. You were using the analogy of you punishing your son for chasing his shadow. therefore you in that senerio take on the role of God. Which means you would also be onmipotent. Meaning you would know exactly what effect your son chasing his shadow would have.
That points to the question I asked: If you being absolutly omnipotent knew beyond a shadow of doubt that your son's shawdow chasing would lead to his death or the death of everyone else around him would you allow him to continue to chase his shadow, EVEN IF the act of shadow chasing was benign?
