...I am truly a god. I have created life and pushed it according to my will; Whole universes have sprung up from my mind, with countries and histories and unique fauna. My creations follow my will, but they still sometimes find ways to surprise me; for even I, their creator and the one ultimately in control of their life, cannot fully control them. And you cannot deny any of this. Why?
Because I am a writer. Everything I just said is 100% true, which makes me a rather impotent, asocial, and insecure god.
Ever see Stranger Than Fiction? I mean, I like your analogy, but when you really look at it, it's kind of impossible not to see the writer/god character as an asshole (and as a writer myself, it's not a pleasant thought) so it's no coincidence when you look at the concept of gods objectively, they look like douchebags.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?
