It is not a straw man. It is an accurate statement.
Why would an almighty deity "be at war" with something, and not just finish off the job ? How utterly stupid and un-thought-out.
A god that *needs* anything, is, by definition, not in possession of perfection.
If your god "comes into" the need for restoring a state of justice, (due to the actions of another being ... whether they are it's creatures or not),
then he (it) is always, not only changing, and not perfect, but also not the creator and master of Reality, to which YOU JUST SAID he was subject to, at the whims of his creatures.
A deity which is subject to any norms and laws of Reality cannot be the creator of that Reality.
Thanks for debunking your god for us.
Always great to have the theists do the deity-debunking for us.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
