>>>Let's take Pres. Bush out of the picture for a minute (I don't want to get into another discussion about him and Iraq.) Let's say Pres A is a friend to Nation A. Let's then say that Nation A begins to attack Pres A's country. Pres A is now at war with Nation A. Has Pres A changed in his character? I say 'no.' Nation A has changed and Pres A reacted to that change. Is that a better analogy?

>>Except that God has the ability to see to it that He is not attacked by Nation A, and even if He allows it, He certainly has the ability to use other means than destruction of innocents to stop the fighting. These abilities may not be quite so available to Pres A.

>All that is true - but - just because He chooses not to do as you outlined above, does not make Him mutable - does it? That was the point of the analogy.
No, you're right about that, but it also, in my estimation, does not make Him worthy of glorifying either.
