Human beings are apparently powerful enough to cause miracles to happen as well then. "God" is suddenly -even less- impressive.Because we can do what God can does not mean that the miracle any less spectacular. We can use magnets to move paper clips without touching them. If a paper clip is made to move without a magnet, then it is miraculous. It still remains that parthogenesis can not occur outside a laboratory.
This argument is useless anyway, because there is no assertion that God can only do things that are impossible for people to do.

No, not coerced. He just killed everyone that didn't give it.

Your analogy here fails to take into account my objections. You are comparing a human in position of authority to the alleged creator of the universe. What I want to know is why a god that is omniscient, omnipotent, infinitely wise, and not only knows the underpinnings of all existence but brought about existence himself is concerned with such petty things like whether or not some hairless primates stuck on a blue rock respect him or not.
