    I learned fairly early even as I was in Sunday school that I’m a better, more moral person than god. And I’m just a flawed person. So what use is such a god to me or anyone?

      You don’t know that. You haven’t been exposed to the same power that God has. You think deleting the toilets of your Sims is funny at the human level because the Sims don’t experience life the way we do. Imagine that scaled 1000x up.

      Ask yourself: would you delete the toilet of every man, woman, and child on Earth just for giggles? Based on my past actions in videogames, I know I would.
      The continuing existence of my toilet is proof that I know that God is a better person than me.

        Not that god is real, cause he isn’t. But I always found him to be an abusive, gaslighting piece of shit. Imagine telling your kids “I love you more than anything, I created you in my image. I want you to be happy and loved… But if you don’t accept my love, I’m going to murder you and torture you with fire for all eternity… But I love you!”
