Yet, because He declares and exhibits His humility, He righteously does prove the same - “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools.” - Romans 1:18-22

Creation, which we love to enjoy - as does the Holy Bible - tell us GOD thoughtfully made it all to be enjoyed! Yet, rather than be thankful, ask questions, or at least be silent, some are regrettably unwise enough to insult the Almighty.
 
Error that comes with consequence! “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
 
I have told you.
(my bold)

You see, this is where  the problems is. When we start asking questions. Especially, questions your great big book of pure bullshit doesn't have answers for, your gawd, or at least it's spokesmen, try to shut you up. Your gawd doesn't want smart people. It wants obedient people. Smart people ask difficult questions. Obedient people simply say "yes, sir." Smart people investigate their world, looking into every nook and crack, peeking behind ever curtain. Obedient people simply accept what their told, doing little else. Your gawd is far more like Donal Trump or Kim Jong Un than it is like Carl Sagan or Stephen Hawking.

It's also described as a hateful, puerile bully in the only book written about it.

Why should anyone be obedient to such a gawd?!? Always assuming it even existed.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


Truly, if you could know GOD by His grace and really read the Bible (and I pray that you all eventually do to saving of the soul), you would "taste and see that the LORD is good" - I say this from personal experience and most especially, from the infallible word of GOD - the holy Bible.  No prophecy written therein has failed, none will fail. It will all be revealed at the end, as prophesied... but many will keep denying until then. 

For the record, and not withstanding that GOD is all-powerful yet meek and keeps His own word/laws - He does indeed command obedience from His creatures! 

Why not obey the Creator in whose hand is life? Is it because you/we have some right, or are wiser or stronger than He? Is it pride? "Pride comes before a fall"! Would you tolerate your own child/ren (say toddlers) refusing to listen to a word you say, insisting on their own way, and on top of it all - insult you? 

"God resists the proud, b
ut gives grace to the humble.” 

Know this though, after all is said and done, and the possibility of salvation / reconciliation with GOD ends (at the end of the age or at the moment one's body dies) - we will all know that GOD is GOD.

For it is written: “As I live, says the LordEvery knee shall bow to Me, And every
 tongue shall confess to God.” - Rom 14:11
