I sometimes wonder who first got the idea of getting milk from a cow, and what he was thinking at the time.
There's always Mohammed's camel milk and camel piss cocktail.

God graciously allows the Angels to fight the battles with the Devil and his demons. God is omniscient and already knows who will be successful in every battle. If God himself were to oppose Satan it would not be a battle since God is omnipotent.
IF a god is Omniscient - then it KNEW that the Germans would be successful at MURDERING a huge portion of the Jewish population of Europe - a large percentage of which were INNOCENT children too young to have actually done anything to deserve to be killed - and that would be just ONCE instance since the god Apparently knows about EVERY murder.
And the idea that the god will not oppose satan - is essentially ALLOWING satan to do whatever while the god looks the other way, essentially being just another ALLY to the devil - Just another DEVIL.
AS far as the god being ALMIGHTY - we ALREADY know that cannot be the case if the god is Omniscient. IF the god knows everything =- Past = present - and future - then the only thing that can happen -- is exactly what it knows = and nothing else. So - even the GOD does not have free will - since the ONLY thing the god can do is what it already knows - and it cannot do something it does not know.
So - a god cannot be both Omniscient and Almighty - so the god of the bible cannot actually exist - since the claims contradict themselves and cannot be true at the same time.
Of course - the one thing ALL gods apparently cannot do - is regrow limbs on a human being - something that HAS NEVER happened in the history of man. To claim that in Billions of years - the not a single person who was born without a limb - or lost one for various reasons - was never worthy of having one regrown - simply is not a statistical possibility.
The events in WWII were small potatoes. If what happens in Zephaniah 1:2-3 (CEB) happens it will be more newsworthy =
2 I will wipe out everything from the earth, says the Lord.
3 I will destroy humanity and the beasts;
I will destroy the birds in the sky and the fish in the sea.
I will make the wicked into a heap of ruins;
I will eliminate humanity from the earth, says the Lord.
