This brings me to the point of this thread, please list any examples that you have of the Bible making God (or Moses or whoever) out to look unreasonably dumb.
Here's another one for you: Jesus and the Fig tree ( Matt 21:17-22, Mark 11:12-14 ) .
In a nutshell, Jesus goes to pick up some figs (in the wrong season) and when he doesn't find any (naturally) he gets pissed off and curses the fig tree!
That makes Jesus look like an ignorant, spiteful dork.
But that's just the Biblical view!

"In life, you have to face that some days you'll be the pigeon and some days you'll be the statue."
