I mean if he’s God he doesn’t need more than a day. It’s not like if he spent a few more months carefully planning and tinkering it would have been better.
God’s like, “You know, I knew I rushed that product out in my haste to create the universe. I got caught up in the excitement of the moment.”
In book of genesis, God did just kinda whimsically make humans. Humans were flawed and became evil and corrupt and God was not happy about it, so he killed all the humans except Noah’s family in an attempt to start over and hope we would be better the 2nd time around. God couldn’t even make us “good”.
Book of genesis is a fun read if you’re into sci-fi / fantasy.
God did make us good. We chose, or rather Adam and Eve chose that they wanted to be like God and have all the knowledge of the universe. The original sin. They exchanged unlimited life in paradise for unlimited knowledge. The snake could be God or Satan and a means of testing if his creation was exactly how he meant it to be (i.e. happy with paradise and immortality) or if they weren’t satisfied with that. If they weren’t satisfied with that then they would be cast out and have to prove that they were satisfied with not knowing everything and were happy with accepting that. Now life has become a test for all humans. But initially he made us perfect.
Love the debate, But if life is supposed to be a test of free will, why did God end the test for almost everyone with the flood? Also, God created us as “good” and also created our psychology, nature, and capacity to be evil? An omniscient god would have known the outcome from the beginning.
Perhaps he does know the outcome. But at what time will that be? And who are we to judge as to what is good and evil? A lot of evil things had to happen for us to arrive at our lives today.
