One God, A Few Personalities, Many Characterizations

In the past couple of days, we have talked about indirect characterization and how any and every character can be characterized in an indirect way. One main character we have been talking about is "god." God is worshipped by many religions such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. He is referred to as Hashem, Adonai, Allah, and Father. He is the center of many religions and has great power. He is capable of anything and everything and essentially, he was the creator of the universe and everything that comes with it. In class, we read the first 10 sections of Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament, the first part of the Bible. When we read the story of Adam and Eve, we realized that after Eve ate the forbidden fruit, God lost all trust in humanity and could never treat us the same way agin. This shows that he is not forgiving and that his main philosophy is learning from your mistakes defines humanity. We saw that god was stubborn in a way, yet he also cared about his two "children." We also studied the story of Noah. In this story, god wipes out the human race but saves one family and every animal, one of each gender. In this story, we see that God is capable of anything and everything. He wiped out all of humanity just to prove a point. This shows that he has insane amounts of power and that what he says goes. God is an interesting character in the way that he knows everything that will happen in the future, yet he still chooses to kind of mess with people's lives. If I had the power to know everything, I'd make the world a better place. This is what we learned and characterized about god.
