A being can Only plausibly acquire the tendency to love, to hate, or behave in any other specific way,  if it is limited in its overall capabilities and must develop specific modes of behavior  to improve its chances of not going extinct.


All powerful god can not have reason to love, or hate.   For that matter, an all powerful god has no reason whatsoever to use its power in any specific way. 

So all powerful god that did this or did that, or that should be worshiped are a self contradicting concepts.
