People say this is a conflict with being omniscient, but that's thinking temporally. For an entity that's timeless, it's all happening at once (or there is no once, it just all is) so he can have a master plan and make mistakes too. There's probably more coming.

    Sounds like you're saying God isn't perfect, you little heretic.

    If there was a god of any type, he sucks. But since there isn't a designer of any sort, the mess we see around us (good and bad) is completely understandable.

    Heretic is typically used on a believer that migrates away from the official dogma, either a little or a lot. Fortunately I was never part of that.

    That doesn't have any logic, how being timeless excuse a perfect entity for making mistakes?

    Logic, for religion. How would that work? I was just using their words to try and create some kind of jargon to make it work. Clearly it doesn't. Would love to know if the downvotes are for your stated reason, or from upset theists. They don't like to look too much behind the curtain.
