You must be describing yourself, you know, never learning and knowing very little, because you believe you know all.

Boy you clearly do not know me at all, I just conceded the point above, and I do not think myself very smart at all. Hell I spell like a five year old on these forums, and I miss key words in sentences a lot to.

Quote:10-11 Then God spoke to Samuel: “I’m sorry I ever made Saul king. He’s turned his back on me. He refuses to do what I tell him.”

How can an omniscient being be "sorry?" Why didn't he know that Saul would let him down before he ever appointed him? WTF did he not appoint someone who would not let him down?
For a "god" this guy comes across as a real asshole.
He didn't know the flood would not work either.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
