Why does positing a God who fits the above bother some people so much?
Seems to me that God WAS surprised a number of times as events unfolded
as described in the Old Testament.
If I am unable to "surprise" God (by doing something bizarre, for
instance), then I must conclude I am without free will and hence a robot
made of meat.
I think not.
