You can believe that you're wiser than God. I don't "object" to your belief. IMO, it's delusional. Maybe Steve Harris will chime in as I pointed my opinion out to him. Perhaps he'll agree with you that you are wiser than God. I would certainly welcome his opinion.

Ummm if you recall I simply said that G*d makes mistakes, I don't know that I am wiser than your personal Deity, but I am more forgiving of His foibles than you. I don't have to believe that His every decision was well planned, well thought out, or necessarily benevolent. I just give Him more latitude than you do. Thus I don't expect every Father figure to be right all the time. People like G*d screw up sometimes and make mistakes. It is only when you can forgive those mistakes and discuss rationally how to fix them that we make progress.
