Hmm...
This God he describes is feeble indeed and nothing like the ones theists generally present. If he was this crap (God) I'd have no problem admitting he is hugely limited and maybe can only manage this bollock of a universe.
Lots of theologians are happy to assert that it doesn't even make sense for omnipotence to include doing what's logically impossible. Their version of God either can't make a rock to heavy for God to lift; or can and actually wouldn't be able to lift it if he did.
Your usual Christian often does the same, without really being conscious of it. All the time they will tell you things God can't do, like let sinners into heaven, or fix evil.
If there is a God, I prefer the version that's hugely limited and doing the best he can under the circumstances to Drich's version who frankly doesn't like us very much.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
