Why....in what way is this a necessary or useful assumption?
You seem a bit smarter than the god character, to me. I expect you to be, you're a living, breathing human being. You have more depth and complexity than any character in the bible. You possess greater knowledge than that book is even capable of imparting. Were it not for you, and people like you, the religions built atop those narratives would have long since floundered. Your progressive moral compass is required, your doctrinal refinements are required - without your collective input and continued maintenance of this narrative there would be no relevance whatsoever. Where the authors fail, where the narrator fails...(and predictably so, in both cases)you, the believers, succeed.
