So, are you looking to have myself and others explain this to you again or are you simply tired of the discussion at this point? Is there something in either quote that you want to point out?
Here, I'll try to make this as simple as possible for you.
I am consistent in my application of rights (we can have that discussion if you like)
-If- I weren't, it wouldn't matter with regards to your god and his rights (or ability to abrogate others rights). Because this would be what is known as "an appeal to hypocrisy" which is just an elaborate ad hom.
Now, if it makes you feel any better, if we had a discussion on animal rights (non-human rights would broadly cover that and include AI), for example, there would be moments which you could very easily consider me the worst kind of monster - and I wouldn't disagree. At least not in principle. Unfortunately nothing in our discussion would excuse your god (and that's assuming it excuses me...which is up for disagreement) without mortally wounding the very concept of god.....an endeavor in which I would gladly become your enabler.
What are you having trouble wrapping your head around?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
