If an omnipotent omniscient creator created the world, then it created the entire history of the world and everything in, right up until it ends.
You will have to present a BASIS for that assertion. Otherwise it is nothing more than a bald assertion.
What is "bald assertion?" Well the name says it all, doesn't it? It's stating something without backing it up.

What you said is certainly not logical at all since humans create the
entire history of the world and everything in it.
Everyone knows that.
But not the same faith in the same God. Many people of faith think the others are totally wrong, some people of faith want to kill other people of different faiths. It's a total failure to communicate (if there is a real God). An utterly pathetic attempt.
Why would
different religions have the
same faith in the same God? Duh.
These different religious were revealed by the same God but the message from that God changed over time.
God did not fail to communicate. God simply communicated
differently at
different times throughout history.
The only failure is on the part of humans in not realizing what I just said above!
Of course, these people would not know what I said above unless they read the Baha'i Writings...
The reason that they fail to understand that their religion is not the only right one is because they have rejected the last Messenger of God, Baha'u'llah, who explained this.
All of which would be entirely predicable for an omniscient god. If such a God exists, this is its total foolishness or incompetence on full display in the world. Come to think of it, a foolish and/or incompetent God makes much more sense when we look at the state of 'creation'...
You are completely illogical. You keep blaming God for what is the fault of humans.
Again, the state of religion in the world is a mess, but that mess was created by humans, NOT by God.
The mess that
humans created is not in any way associated with the omniscient God, it is what would be predicted for fallible humans who failed to recognize ALL the messengers of God but rather clung to the ONE Messenger they believe in.
There's the endless circularity again. God should have done a better job of creating people, if they cannot receive its messages.
You just keep digging your grave deeper with your illogical statements.
It is not God's fault in any way that humans fail to receive the messages... It is totally man's fault.
God created all humans with the
capacity to receive His messages. If God had not done so how could God hold humans accountable for NOT receiving the messages? Baha'u'llah explained this.
“I have perfected in every one of you My creation, so that the excellence of My handiwork may be fully revealed unto men. It follows, therefore, that every man hath been, and will continue to be, able of himself to appreciate the Beauty of God, the Glorified. Had he not been endowed with such a
capacity, how could he be called to account for his failure?”
“He hath endowed every soul with the
capacity to recognize the signs of God. How could He, otherwise, have fulfilled His testimony unto men, if ye be of them that ponder His Cause in their hearts. He will never deal unjustly with any one, neither will He task a soul beyond its power. He, verily, is the Compassionate, the All-Merciful.”
So god is incapable of projecting its presence into the world in a way that won't kill people. So much for omnipotence. Or perhaps more evidence of bumbling incompetence?
Sorry to say this but that statement is idiotic. Wanna know why?
It is precisely
because God is omnipotent that He cannot project His presence into the world without killing people.
Yes, if the Essence of God 'showed up' on earth all created things would be reduced to utter nothingness, and THAT is why God sends Messengers to represent Him on earth, which are referred to in the following passage as Manifestations of Divine justice.
“That the Manifestations of Divine justice, the Day Springs of heavenly grace, have when they appeared amongst men always been destitute of all earthly dominion and shorn of the means of worldly ascendancy, should be attributed to this same principle of separation and distinction which animateth the Divine Purpose. Were the Eternal Essence to manifest all that is latent within Him, were He to shine in the plentitude of His glory, none would be found to question His power or repudiate His truth. Nay, all created things would be so dazzled and thunderstruck by the evidences of His light as to be reduced to utter nothingness. How, then, can the godly be differentiated under such circumstances from the froward?"
Do you really not see how comical this is? All you are telling us is what you believe about reality. That's fine, you can believe what you like, but if you try to make it logical and end up with a circular argument, it just looks silly. Sorry.
There is nothing funny about this, you just don't like it but it is perfectly logical.
You keep using circular arguments as a smokescreen. I already told you that I am not making an argument for God's existence because that would be impossible given the premise 'God exists' can never be proven.
If the REALITY of the situation is that God uses messengers to communicate to humans, that is what God does...
is really no different from saying that If the REALITY of the situation is that the planet Pluto exists, that is reality.
The only difference is that the planet Pluto has been proven to exist, whereas God can never be proven to exist.
But proof is NOT what makes God exist! God either exists or not and God can exist absent proof, just like the plant Pluto existed
before it was discovered in 1930!
You are so blinded by your bias that you cannot understand simple logic.
That's not what I was referring to. Before that you'd used the nonsense circular argument for why messengers were evidence. They're only evidence if you believe they are. Evidence that requires blind faith is not evidence.
You are wrong again. Messengers are evidence if God sent them as evidence.
It would not matter if not one person in the world believed them. If God sent them as evidence they would be evidence.
Faith with evidence is not blind faith. It is evidence-based faith, and the Messengers provided evidence of their station.
Faith will always be necessary to believe in God since
there is not and never will be proof that God exists. The reason there is no proof is because God did not provide proof, and God did not provide proof because God wants our faith.
Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
Believing in God requires faith since no man has ever seen God and no man ever will see God. With that in mind we go looking for the evidence.
God will reward those who earnestly seek Him by helping them find the evidence they need to believe, but God will never force anyone to accept the evidence.
