But why did God have to prove anything to Satan? So we could all understand the awesomeness of God? I find it funny that God has to devise these elaborate plans to make a point.

Why did Christ have to die for our sins? Couldn't God have just forgiven us all instead? Why did God have to flood the earth? Couldn't he have just snapped us out of existence the same way he snapped us into existence?

This is the result of true skepticism. I am not one to accept what it lied in front of me without asking questions...
