Hell yeah

Oh course the SNES audio chip was so bad for voices that some of the lines sounded nothing like they were supposed to (and also, being a little kid kinda didn't help) so when you hit the spikes I always heard "Let go let go" which never made any sense to me lol. Also, when you die I just heard a weird mumble.

But yes

That's not even close to the last thing he did. He remains a major character for a long time after that. In fact, shortly after that, God uses him to save Israel from venomous serpents.

The apostles in the NT are constantly shown as not understanding Jesus and being unbelieiving and this isn't even taking into account when Peter denied Jesus and the other apostles hid during the crucifixion.
Like Jesus says "i gotta die" and Peter goes "no, shut up" and Jesus calls Peter Satan.
Well Peter didn't write any of the gospels. Moses did write part of the Bible but his story is one of redemption and trials, where Jonah's is one of, like, having a really bad attitude and never learning any better, lol.

From what I've heard of it the bible really doesnt say s*** about the devil almost at all.
He definitely appears in person at least twice off the top of my head--in the book of Job and in the gospels--plus, Revelation names him specifically as the meaning behind the dragon, which in turn ties him to the serpent in the Garden of Eden. IIRC Jude also refers to him, but Jude is a weird book I can't figure out what to make of.

But to your point, there aren't a lot of specific mentions of the guy.

It probably was a real event... Jonah probably went off into the wilderness and ate some kind of hallucinatory mushroom or plant and tripped his testicles off for a few days and the whole whale thing was in his head and then he came back and told the story as if it had been real and people believed him.
I find it far more difficult to believe that the book of Jonah is written based on his own testamony than to believe a dag gadol swallowed him and puked him up, tbh.

It's pretty unflattering. It paints Jonah as a petty, self-righteous ingrate who insists God is a jerk for not being evil and insults God with his own words on being loving and forgiving, and even ends when God asks him a question he can't answer, which serves as the moral of the story.

It would be like seeing one of those moderation complaint topics that says "so I blatantly broke the ToU, disrespected the mods in the dispute, then whined about times when people I don't like have gotten their moderations overturned, and finally they pointed me to the exact spot in the ToU that describes the rule I broke and they were totally right."

If God can destroy the devil but chooses not to, then he's not benevolent.
He can, and he does. Just not yet. The book of Revelation quite clearly depicts Jesus ultimately slaying Satan at least once. The book of Habakkuk goes into detail of why he doesn't just yet. He uses one evil to punish others in a cycle that is eventually broken when Satan ultimately purges all the wicked except himself, and Jesus, being the ultimate Good, rids the world of evil forever with a single precision blow.

It's a pretty simple matter of understanding extrapolation.

They do a few tests, see how things tend to change over time, and extrapolate out a lot of things about the planet's history, and there's nothing wrong with that. You know, the ball is here now, it was there a minute ago, so it must have been over there ten minutes ago.

But you gotta understand that extrapolation is more like an educated guess. Maybe there's a wall we can't see that the ball bounced off of. Maybe its evidently linear trajectory was derived from too small a sample space to account for small coefficients on the other polynomial degrees. Maybe the universe itself came into existence three minutes ago with the ball having the particular initial velocity we have observed.

There's nothing wrong with making a best guess that ignores these kinds of possibilities, but it's silly to just assert as unarguably true that since we haven't seen them they didn't happen.

it comes up in episode 2. Anakin goes to talk to Watto, his former owner, to ask about his mother. Watto says he "sold her to a man called Lars." he freed her and married her.

if memory serves, Owen Lars was the dude's son from before he married Shmi.
I forgot about that. But to play Devil's advocate, ep 2 is not A New Hope.

Well out-of-universe, it's pretty clear that in ANH none of the main characters was supposed to be related to each other, so it wasn't a problem for Luke and Anakin to share a last name, and there was no need for Leia to also share it.

In-universe, I'm sure Wookiepedia has some nonsense taken off of a Chinese knockoff action figure but in ANH itself, what makes you so sure uncle Owen's last name isn't Skywalker? They do live on Tattooine, plus Shmi lived a long time after Anakin left and we don't see what went on in that time.

What does that even mean?

In any case God created creation through his word. The living word is Jesus Christ.

The book of Isaiah chap. 55 : 11(new American standard version) states:

11 So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it
Right, this is what makes Jesus the creator. As for the Trinity, The St. Patrick's Day guy used the illustration of a shamrock. Three leaves, one shamrock. Three persons, one God.

It's more nuanced than that, but that's the short of it.
