if god was really perfect, he would not need to do ANYTHING

How do you know that?

What is "an infalibility"?

How so... Do you need anything? Why are you posting here then?

On what basis do you make that assertion?

A 'clone of God'? You don't seem to be omniscient in any case. :lol:

I don't need to buy chistmas presents, but i'll still do it. God did not need to create us, but he chose too and i'm very grateful that he did. Also, if someone did nothing at all, I would consider that a character flaw and not perfection. I don't see why God would be more perfect if he did nothing rather than something.

Good point, but if He never created anybody at least there wouldn't be people around to whine about it. :wink:

Good argument, though I don't think that God does 'nothing' in eternity. Because God's Son is 'eternally begotten' (as all orthodox Christians believe), the Father must be 'eternally begetting', right? The persons of the Trinity are, I believe, always dynamic, always expressing the holiest kind of love towards each other.
