We do not want to act “dumb,” do we? That is to say, stupid, senseless, unreasonable, which also means, unscientific? There is nothing else for reasoning, intelligent humans to accept but that the great Runner of this amazing “establishment” of beauty, design and power is an intelligent Person, even though invisible to our frail natural eyes.

goodlife - many acknowledging theologians have the understanding that the message in Genesis does not concern an account of creation, but generally the relationship between God and His creation. It is not about ancient cosmology, because if it were then as with concordism, you would need to bastardise the sacred text and thwart its original meaning from 3000 years ago to accord with modern cosmological understanding.

True, he may not have done what men expected him to do. But this does not mean he has done nothing. Actually, he has been active on behalf of mankind from the beginning of human history right down to the present day.
For one reason people feel that God is dead, is man’s short life-span. This makes man impatient to get things done in the brief time that life allows him. Sometimes his efforts prove premature, and so fail to achieve the intended goal. But his desire to see results during his own lifetime dominates his thinking. Mistakenly, he tends to judge God on the basis of such human experience, with all its limitations.

Goodlife, Do you never see the complete absence of rational thought in your statements?
//Actually, he has been active on behalf of mankind from the beginning of human history right down to the present day.//

Wrong, you see, very basic, is made to stand out. From the beginning, we see that God has had a definite purpose in everything that he has done, and he has never failed to act when the accomplishment of his purpose required action. His fundamental purpose was stated, though in veiled language, right in Eden. When passing judgment on Satan, Jehovah foretold that Satan would have opportunity to raise up a “seed,” those who would manifest his traits and do his will, like you lot, He also foretold the producing of another “seed,” a righteous deliverer. This one would administer a fatal blow to the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan,” and thus release mankind from his wicked domination. (Genesis 3:15; ) After making this statement of purpose, Jehovah proceeded to make definite preparations for the eventual administration of earth’s affairs under the promised “seed.” This preparatory work would take time, as you shall see.
