       for anyone to say that God made a mistake would be considered

       What if God says WHAT ?????
       He made no mistake...cannot have done...He is Alpha and Omega
       ...He sqw the end from before the beginning.. He has His Master
       Plan...always has, always will..
       
       You may be thinking of in the time of Noah, when He says in
       Gen 6 6 "And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the
       earth, and it grieved him at his heart."
       I believe that was for mans sake..but from His position, He
       always knew, because of what He knew was in man.
       God Win's... always does, and always will.

       I'd want to see the statement before commenting.  Sometimes the
       first opinion that comes to mind when we read a passage can't be
       right.  Consider this:
       Genesis 11:5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the
       tower, which the children of men builded.
       Should we believe God didn't know what was going on and couldn't
       see unless He came down to earth?  Can we believe God needs
       spectacles?  Of course not.  The verse doesn't mean that.

       Some parts of the Bible are written in the "language of men" and
       express a viewpoint about how men experience things.    We are
       tested when we read them.  Do we take the literal interpretation
       (by the letter) or do we realize the correct interpretation must
       be spiritual and not literal.
       I agree with  you then about the days of Noah.  God had made the
       world and it grieved Him to see what a mess men were making of
       it.   If the text suggests otherwise, we should realize it can't
       be so.   God's plan for mankind went forward and will succeed in
       the end.  God did not make a mistake, men did.  The wonderful
       thing is that God's plan took all that into account. Even if we
       mess up,  that is not permanent.  God has a plan that can fix
       things.

       ah ha Helen - so far fair enough but wait for my forthcoming
       topics viz Catch 22 the supreme and ultimate trap and conundrum
       set by the Devil which also answers the second one which has
       been asked down the ages and even asked and denied by some today
       viz 'was He really crucified and why - was there no other way -
       there was indeed another way and it was offered by the devil
       'bow down and worship me' - twinc

       Did God really say so? Read it again in context.
       What a thing to say about Almighty God. God doesn't make
       mistakes. Be careful what you say about God. Because that is a
       mistake.

       So now you're saying a mistake isn't always a mistake?  That
       everything is relative?

       An exception does not prove the rule, it merely alters the
       extent of its application.
