Only an infinite being could seemingly split itself into another (apparently) equally infinite being.

Adversary, or Friend?

Lover, or Family?

Omniscience mainly in religion, is the capacity to know everything that there is to know. In particular, dharmic religions (Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism) and the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) believe that there is a divine being who is omniscient.

When you're omniscent, there is nothing more entertaining than being taken by surprise.
The only way, after all, to beat the all knowing, is with the unknown.

Personally, I think you would be constantly running a simulation against yourself, because the only way to know everything is if every possiblity exists within yourself.

If you want to play a good game, you have to program a good simulation.
But if you simulate God, you are God.
And if you are God, you can't lose...

So who wins?

If the contenders of a game are perfect, the only way to improve upon the formula is with the game.
So that's the way perfection becomes better.
With bigger and better games.

Re: It's all just cosmic entertainment
Can you imagine that God may have more power than any of us can comprehend, as in literally we cannot even begin to explain his ways, no matter how 'clever' we become, or for how long we search for explanations?

If you can believe this, you can find rest in his power.

He wants to be defeated so that something greater than perfection can be possible.

But he can't pull punches.

A game is just a context to measure yourself on.
Experience in a transient mortal frame may not need framing in this manner, because our lives are so short and everything matters.
But if you were a God, you would start needing a container for your infinite experience
