And so your god can "intend" how things should go and they don't go that way.
Again, I don't think I'm being clear enough.

God sees that if he does X...Y will not happen.
There fore he does Z to accomplish Z.

That's different from doing X and incorrectly thinking Y will happen.

So your god is nothing more than a prognosticator who is sometimes wrong, who actually analyzes, thinks, plans, chooses, etc. That's not an all powerful god.
So planing ahead = being sometimes wrong.

Help, because I'm missing something.

Why would I want to be a PR man for a mythical being? Why would I want to convince people to accept without any reason to do so? Why would I encourage them to stop thinking for themselves and accept magic as the answer?
What if he were real. Pretend he were.

You'll find that your answer may not be too different from God's.

It would explain why he's more subtle.


Don't forget this is all in good fun!
