Next?
Did your human nature force you to be an atheist ? no.
Didn't your god allegedly make me? How is it I came out as an unintended mistake?
Either your god meant to make me an atheist, which means he is not perfectly just for dooming me to hell for being his own creation; or your god didn't make me, in which case I not only owe him no allegiance but that you must admit he didn't create everything, or that he made me but his manufacture was flawed, meaning that your god is not perfect.
Which queen is it you wish to sacrifice? You cannot have an omnipotent and perfectly merciful god if you surrender any of these components.
Maybe you don't believe in an omnipotent god, but that also prompts the question of what exactly you mean when you refer to "god". You should probably define your own beliefs about this god-thingy you're so sexed-up on.
