A list of all of God's crimes

Your analogy is a poor one. This deity didn't leave his children at an orphanage, he abandoned them on a dangerous planet full of things that want to eat or kill them.

Also, unlike a child, we are not exactly helpless either. My argument is against assumption of responsibility on god's part.

Well under that analogy, God would have no legal rights to contact us, or see us, and most importantly any authority whatsoever. Most theists believe that God has some authority over us, and with authority comes responsibility. So hypothetically speaking, if God had any authority over us, he would also have responsibility as well, and therefore be responsible for everything that happened to us.

Now that is a good argument. So, a theistic god can be brought up on the criminal charges, but a deistic god cannot.
