Re: Never mind! Can God Change His/Her Mind?
I'm going to just restate what's been said minus the vitriol; Kathulos, that isn't changing your mind. I don't see how you came to that conclusion.
If you had said "clean your room, and I'll spank you" and then he cleaned his room and you decided not to spank him, that would be changing your mind.
Or, if you said "clean your room, or I'll spank you" and he says "no", but you don't spank him, that would be changing your mind as well.
Also, if you said "clean your room, or I'll spank you", and he said "okay" and cleaned his room, but you spanked him anyways, that would also be changing your mind.
All of the above are examples of changing your mind given the ultimatum you've provided. The example you provided is not, because you didn't deviate from the ultimatum.
