It also explains why many theists take arguments/insults against God so very personally, and have trouble distinguishing between their beliefs and their identity.
And it explains how they are able to so accurately interpret the text to mean exactly what God (themselves) wants it to mean.
The sad part is where they've been forced to believe that God doesn't want them to do something that they actually see no harm in, or wants them to do something they see as harmful. In these cases, something has to give, and often it can be the person's morality. This further explains the anger some theists seem to feel at the freedom atheists have to do some completely harmless activities. "You just want to sin..." = "I really want to do that but I can't let myself".
