You're wrong.
Quote:I do not have this version so I can't say 100% it's not there. I doubt it though, why, I find it hard to believe you have all these versions, I find it probable you went to an atheist site to get these verses.
Quote:I know for a fact that the ESV doesn't use the word regretted, why, because I have one I use to study scripture and I looked it up before I posted my earlier statements to you. You are being nothing but deceptive, to prove a point, one that is not true, why, because you do not want Christians to be correct in anything they say. If you're going to challenge me about scripture you better come with something besides deception.
Quote:I have the NIV also and the word regretted does not appear in this verse, actually it uses the word grieved, meaning sorry or sorrow, you're still running a game of deception, shame on you. You are making atheist look bad with this approach, I just answered a post about how atheist do this very thing a few minutes ago.
Quote:Again you post a verse that doesn't use the word regret, and actually uses two words to support He was sorry, those would be grieved and repented, to repent means to be and or have sorrow.http://biblehub.com/genesis/6-6.htm
Here's some more, NASV, Genesis 6:6 "And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. The literal translation of the last part of this verse means 'to grieve.' That would be to hurt or to be sad.
NLT Genesis 6:6 " so the LORD was sorry He ever made them. It broke His heart. Again regret is not even hinted at, God was sad He made them because of what they had become, and hurt at how they had disobeyed and turned to their own evil ways.
Each verse is there with the specific version of the bible it came from. Dude, it took me ten fucking seconds to find that. And if that's not enough then do your on search with the verse and the version you want to know about. There's multiple references. Here's another for you since you claim that the word regret is not mentioned in the NIV.

I'm not going to spoon feed you anymore so look at the rest for yourself.
I included "repent" because if you repent of something you are acknowledging you did something wrong. The key difference between repent and regret is that you repent by making it right. God's way of making it right was to drown everybody.
Quote:I think I would like to see it served on your plate, raw, that way you might consider being honest and doing honest research before you run off at the mouth.I'm a lot of things, but dishonest isn't one of them.
Quote:I did before I ever posted the first time, I have several versions here and all support God did not regret creating man, He was sorrowed and hurt by their actions. It's you who should check his sources, either that or quite adding in words that are not that.Apparently, you failed hard at checking as I've already shown.
Quote:Interpretation is subjective. My interpretation is as valid as yours. You're simply unwilling to even consider any other interpretation because it implies that your god is not an infallible entity, and if that is true then your whole world crumbles around you. Man, the mental gymnastics you guys go through each day to believe in the horse shit you spew must be exhausting.
The thing you need to concede is you are not capable of interpreting scripture.

By the way, you deflected my question. You said that God is tangible, measurable, and knowable. Prove each one. Put up or shut up time.
Thanks for playing.
