That's why I"m not religious - or "spiritual"...
The whole ball-o-wax sounds like a semi-permanent state of being out-of-contact with reality.
before i address the paradox (a statement that contradicts itself) i want to insert a fact from history.. .
the romans used a malleable (and highly poisonous) metal (lead) for water pipes and conduits.
as snows melted into pure water, it was channeled into sluices and pipes made of lead that ran through the cities as drinking water.. .

Ooooh, yeah.... That's why it took at LEAST a thousand years for "Noah's" flood to take place, didn't it???

What, isn't anyone going to check out these funny videos????
Satan was actually the original brown-nosing, water-cooler-haunting, office sneak...
Like so many bosses, "jehovah" was a sucker for flattery - and ol' Scratch could dump a load of shiners on "jehovah's" ears...
So, Satan treated the boss "jehovah" like a king - er, "god" - to his face, but behind his back, he'd run around sneering at "jehovah's" inability to tell what an erupting volcano was, "jehovah's" spastic account of the "creation", and "jehovah's" petty, jealous nature.
Then ol' Mephistopheles [Satan] went around accusing all the OTHER office workers - er, "angels" - of trying to "infringe" upon HIS rights, mocking and begrudging HIS choices, which in fact he himself was doing to everyone else - while maintaining a facade of "righteousness" in front of the boss...
I guess ol' Satan slipped up and let an incriminating memo be found, or maybe ol' "jehovah" eventually had an epiphany.
Since then, Satan's not "jehovah's" little golden-haired angel anymore...

OH!!
That guy's a real character - but he makes the most frenetic, semi-entertaining ex-JW vids on YouTube...
i'd just like to say hello and welcome to one of our newest members, vangogh.... though he [she?
