Genesis 6:7 he said, “I will eliminate man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth, from man to other living things, from animals even to the flying things of the air. For it grieves me that I have made them.”

Regret
Is God’s in-moment regret a part of his plan?

People say this is a conflict with being omniscient, but that's thinking temporally. For an entity that's timeless, it's all happening at once (or there is no once, it just all is) so he can have a master plan and make mistakes too. There's probably more coming.

make mistakes
Sounds like you’re saying God isn’t perfect, you little heretic.

If there was a god of any type, he sucks. But since there isn't a designer of any sort, the mess we see around us (good and bad) is completely understandable.

That doesn’t have any logic, how being timeless excuse a perfect entity for making mistakes?

Logic, for religion. How would that work? I was just using their words to try and create some kind of jargon to make it work. Clearly it doesn't. Would love to know if the downvotes are for your stated reason, or from upset theists. They don't like to look too much behind the curtain.

Nah I think most people (like me) didn’t get the sarcasm. At least your first comment worked as that is exactly what an apologist would say.

He either knew it was a mistake before he even thought to start like they say and fucked up on purpose, or he isnt all knowing and is as fickle as any man, making him hardly a god at all
