I also don't like the God idea and do find it suffocating, but possibly for different reasons. I don't believe in a god because it doesn't make sense not because I don't like the idea, as there are many things I don't like but do believe in due to the available evidence. But if a God were to appear and provide irrefutable evidence of it's existence I would be saddened because it robs us of uncertainty, discovery, and individuality. The secrets of the natural world would just fall to God made it that way because it wanted to, so there would cease scientific and philosophical discussions about how the universe, matter, and life formed. Also gone would be the point in which we apply our own value or purpose to our lives. That would be established by the god that lays down the laws and enforces them. So rather than me choosing to live my own life I would be trying to make the grade and pass the test that is my life.
