Neither character has any existence outside of fiction, whether or not someone worships either as a god. So, no, "he" is, and no, it's not.
Quote:Well, I don't know what this has to do with humans, I thought that this was about God.
Find me anything that has to do with any god whatsoever that has anything to do with anything other than human beings and I'll eat crow.
Quote:Well, who is that dictator? Certainly not God, for the punishment that you face has to be approved of the public, else no law enforcement would ever matter anyways.
But God is, by definition, you me or anyone else, for he is the creator, isn't he? So he has every right to decide for you me or anyone else.
Were you betrothed? Did your parents choose your career? Do you ask them when you can go pee-pee?
Quote:The courts in pluralistic society are subject to the rule of the consent of the governed.
Tell the cops you don't consent to being arrested, see how far that gets you.
Quote:Well, given that God preceeds every society, what really matters here?
LOL, no.
Quote:Well, if you do not accept his laws, why do you accept his flesh and the soul he has given you? And call him a dictator on the top of that?
I don't recall accepting any gifts from any such character.
Quote:Well, only God can put a stop to himself, as you know.
