The other thing that puzzles me about religion, in general, is this: If The deity is, supposedly, omniscient then it already knows how this is all going to turn out and has always known. It has always known who the good ones are and who the sinners are, who tried their best and who just paid lip service to the idea.
If this is already known then what is the point?
Why make such a song and dance about giving us free will, when it is so blatantly nothing of the kind? And what's with the charade of giving us Christians his only son to die for our sins. It's very considerate, I'm sure, but as offers go it seems a bit illogical to go to such extremes when as an omnipotent being you could, if you chose, wipe them out anyway.

And another thing, why does revelation of any kind have to be delivered in such ridiculously ambiguous language. If you are going to give the plot away, then give it away, I see little point or sense in all this coquettish mystification. All it does is serve to sow dissention and discord because people cannot agree on what it all means.
