The Bible makes ZERO mention of your assertion. It, in fact, implies the contrary: that given but a single language, they could accomplish anything.
Quote:What He did was give them different languages to scatter them as He first commanded them to do. He did not want man to accomplish the evil they had before the flood, that's what God meant by man could accomplish anything.
And yet it doesn't even imply that. God specifically makes mention of them being able to accomplish anything within the context of building a tower to Heaven or the heavens.
Oh and notice how that COMPLETELY failed? Why would confusing his creation change ANYTHING with respect to doing evil? Especially considering they managed to do so regardless.
Quote:Why would an omnipotent God worry about people being able to accomplish great things, He could have foiled anything they would do against Him, He's omnipotent.
Yeah, we're wondering that too. Apparently omnipotent, yet specifically notes that his creations' ability to accomplish any task (in the context of building a great tower to the heavens) given a single language as the reason for screwing with their languages...and which failed to avert what you claim to have been his real intention.
What a load of poorly thought out croc.
