Regardless of the original poster's intention, such questions should be easily and readily answered.

Why? There isn't any point in it. Its not our's to know the mind of God.

Simply saying "that's a dumb question" just turns people off to faith.

I didn't say it was a dumb question. It is a pointless question. Would you also feel obliged to answer whether God wears boxers or briefs? Treating the faith seriously, as it should be, doesn't turn people off to it. However, I think that treating it like a game of Dungeons and Dragons does.

"Its not our's to know the mind of God."

Not so. Matt 7:7,8, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

If one does not know the mind of God, one does not know the Holy Spirit, and could never follow the command in Matt 5:48, "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect."
