Let's see what Calvin has to say about the immutability and consistency of God regarding Genesis 6:6..."The repentance which is here ascribed to God does not properly belong to him,"

I thought everything belongs to him. Is there anything not in his control? The truth is, God repents all over the Old Testament. Reading Calvin only reminds what hyperbolic, convoluted mental gymnastics are needed to make the Hebrew God into a Platonic Christian Deity

Calvin is saying you’re misunderstanding the word “repentance” in relation to God.

I’d have to agree with Calvin.
