From Genesis 6:5-6:
“The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.”
Does this mean that God regrets or wishes that he didn't create any humans itself even though the Devil influenced Eve to take a fruit, and sin entered the world and humanity became so corrupted? So God basically wishes he didn't make us humans all because of Eve choosing to sin in the garden? If that's so, then I consider that one of the "bad news" parts of Christianity. It's not helping me appreciate God more.
I want an answer to this question in fewer words. I don't think I want to dig through a long article right now to get it.
