Is the God of the Bible, as bible accounts tell us and according to witness theology clever or a bit daft and wasteful?.Lets look at a few things.
God creates man.So in someway man is designed by God.Now for some reason which is either a natural law which god cannot break, an error on his part or done on purpose, man is able to become imperfect.So either God could not forsee this or he carried on despite knowing what would happen if man turned imperfect.
Was God right to do this?If you were God would you have carried on?Was it right that if only the first two humans managed to become imperfect or made by god imperfect that ALL humans from then on would now be so cursed?Is God using a dodgy programme or does he have no power to do things differently?
Then god sets laws for humans.It is up to God what man can and can not do.Truble is these are exactly the things humans what to do if imperfect.Could god have changed things round a bit making it easier for humans to follow his laws?
In fact those cursed with imperfection had no choice in the matter.And are punished for following their instincts.It goes so far that God says unless you follow my laws (which are impossible to follow fully as we are imperfect)I'm going to kill the lot of you?In fact I already know that hardly any will survive.
If you are an imperfect human , unable to follow God through no fault of your own, you are considered wicked.But apart from that apparently God allows some other creature with his mates to to mislead these poor humans with devious plans.They are so good that you cant even tell Satan and his demon friends even exist.Yet God allows tham to causes havoc among his humans.
Aparently only those who manage to find out God exist through a book written thousands of years earlier , without any supporting evidence of being genuinly written by God, and only those out of that number who come across a tiny religious group , lead by a bunch of men who can not prove god is using them, and who sell their magazines by going door to door are going to be saved.
Does this make sense?Why does not God make it easier for humans?Why allow them to be bullied and mislead by super powerful creatures?Why make the "truth" so hard to find , so difficult to believe?Why punish people for things they can't help doing?
Why?All to prove God is the only one deserving of worship.
So is God so good why doesn't he think of a better way to sort his problems out?If God is so limited and there is no better way, is he really desrving of this worship he desires?He would just be a creature like us limited by the laws of nature.
So in which way is God really that clever , he cant think of a way to solve his problem without having little humans suffer from sickness, death, abuse, war and millions of other things for six thousand years, and them he has to kill most of them anyway.
Is this good use of his resoruces, in order to produce a population on earth of about six million you need six thousand years of misery and suffering, and the destruction of billions of humans in first a flood and then armageddon.
How wasteful god is.Could you have done better?
