RE: Who the Hell does God think he is??

That seems unlikely, what with how they wrote magic book.
If the gods people describe are riddled with contradiction and paradox, then the gods people believe in are riddled with contradiction and paradox. I guess that's an issue for the rationality of god belief...but from an existential angle, it's unclear why it would be a problem. We're full of contradiction and paradox ourselves.
I wonder what a god would think about relationships with the faithful who were always trying to fix him?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

God thinks he’s me. Or at least wishes he was. I treat people better.

What makes you think that Gawd wants to treat people better?

Well, it would cause some atheist arguments to crumble. Surely God’s got to have an interest in THAT.

If Gawd wanted to prove atheists wrong he could just show up and perform a miracle or part a sea or walk in with a plague. Just showing up would help his case a lot. It's been a long time, surely he is rested up enough to do a little traveling.
