Letting my mind out to play a bit yesterday, I got to wondering. If God made Everything in 6 days, and rested on the 7th, what did he do on the 8th day? And what was he doing on day 7 while resting? Was he in heaven telling the angels, hold my calls I'm wasted.
If God "rests" he isn't all-powerful, nor any kind of spiritual being. He must be flesh and blood if his body can fatigue and require rest. Yes, no, maybe so?
@HesDeltanCaptain,
Why the hang up on the "all powerful" thing. Why wouldn't a creator like to sit back ,watch, admire and enjoy his creation? Even if he wasn't tired.
@Leadfoot,
So, God created us as his personal ant farm under glass?
@HesDeltanCaptain,
Yes Hes, in a manner of speaking. In the pantheistic view the evolution of the humanoid is largely for Her entertainment and admiration
@HesDeltanCaptain,
Basically yes, but maybe he has a higher opinion of us than just ants.
In one of the little known, noncanonical texts, it is written:
"And on the seventh day, the Lord, the Son, and
the Spirit; and Satan and all the angels, blazthed
upon the pipe of blessing, righteousness and
tranquility. And they looked upon its stinky
contents, and behold, all but the angel Satan agreed
that it was very good..."
"And on the eighth day, God commanded unto the
host of angels, "Cleaneth thine pizza boxes, potato
chip bags and snack cake wrappers, and do not let
them scatter about the earth." And again, all but the
angel Satan agreed."

He decided he could do better. So he scrapped all the childish nonsense and started over with a Big Bang and just became the wave.
@rosborne979,
Then he went to Chuck E. Cheese and played Whack A Mole.
@chai2,
Actually, if you believe all that bible business, by day 8 he was getting all up in adam and eve's business.
@jcboy,
Well, if you ever play against God, don't beat him. He's a sore loser.
@HesDeltanCaptain,
Show us where in the Bible that the seventh day has ended.
Barring that, send us all pizza.

I've played against him but never beat him. Even if he had lost, he couldn't have been as harsh as what I put myself through
@HesDeltanCaptain,
Early Christianity had endless references to the EIGHTH DAY !! Sunday was also known in patristic writings as the eighth day, for one example.
I can give a plug to one of my favorite bookstores :
Eighth Day Books - classics in religion, literature, history, and philosophy
@HesDeltanCaptain,
watch Adam 'and Eve' look around the Garden of Eden??

He realized on day 8 it was all messed up but it was too late to stop now. God is enept if you read the Bible with as little bias as possible.
He sustains His creation.
@vansdad,
Enoch the righteous, wrote that God created an ‘EIGHTH’ day also, so that it should be the first after his works, and it is a day eternal with neither hours, days, weeks, months or years, for all time is stuck together in one aeon, etc, etc, and all who enter into the generation of the Light beings, are able to visit all those worlds that still exist in Space-Time, but not in our time.
@HesDeltanCaptain,
He said "**** this!" threw his hands up in the air and left. Everything that happened after is all man and evolution.
