God's Mistakes

One of God's early mistakes was letting people know he had power.  They then expected he would use it in ways they determined.  Another was in letting them know he was perfect.  It was an impossible standard, since people's notion and expectation of perfection varied as well.  He might have been better to advertise as "nicer than earlier notions of God, less capricious where I have choices and wishing you well no matter what the outcome."
