God doesn’t change, but we (as in Mankind) do. Human history is a story of progression. It is, frankly, an uneven progression with lots of reverses over the centuries, but socially things have progressed. What God is doing is slowly bringing us to a more complete understanding of Himself and His will.

Consider. If your three year old punches his brother and steals his candy, you don’t give him a treatise on advanced ethics, true though all that would be. Not because it isnt right, but because said three-year old wouldnt understand it. You take more immediate, and less academic, action. When he grows up he can get a treatise on the rights of man

Really? Has human nature changed since the fall of Adam? Do you believe in Adam?

It is, frankly, an uneven progression with lots of reverses over the centuries, but socially things have progressed.

Have you been to Africa or the Middle East? How about Pakistan or Iran? Are they improving socially? In the last century over 100 million people were murdered by tyrants and governments in Christian nations such as Russia and Germany. Was that an improvement over the previous century? You think this century is going to be any better?

What God is doing is slowly bringing us to a more complete understanding of Himself and His will.

There are less and less Christians every year. We are moving towards an Islamic takeover of post-Christian Europe which will be followed by an Islamic takeover of post-Christian Canada. Are you suggesting that maybe "Allah" is God? Or are you just engaging in wishful speculation?
