So G*d made a little mistake, even the best of us makes a mistake now and then, and one mistake, I can forgive him.... But should he want to fix it, it will be fine with me.

No question, that's blasphemy. "Religious" people do that a lot for some reason.

Did you notice in that particular passage of Genesis that God would have a perpetual covenant with descendants of Isaac, while the descendants of Ishmael get the great nation. Doesn't bode well for the nation of Israel.

I'll bet that we could also find some religious descendants of Ishmael that believe that God should have let Abraham go through with the sacrifice of Isaac.
