God knew exactly how it would turn out. No mystery at all. God must be really bored by his existence. What joy is there?

To take it another step, you could almost say that God has no free will. Since he can see the future, he knows exactly what is going to happen. No matter what decision he makes, the decision has already been made and he knows the result.

So, what's the point of God's existence? He's all powerful, all-knowing. There's no action he can take, nothing he can do, that will in any way please him, surprise him or teach him anything. Seems like a pretty hellish existence, actually.

Can God choose to exist or not? Can he commit suicide?

Dinosaurs were just plain naughty, so God, in his mercy, snuffed them out.

Point's moot, really. Divergent and convergent speciation is still occuring - the original plan He set down works, flood or no flood, Noah or Gillgamesh (or Hiawatha, whatever).
