True, but what if it were an Abrahamic situation where this deity wanted you to prove your loyalty and love for him by sacrificing your only son (or anyone else)? And just when you're about to go through with it, thinking that like the Abraham story this god will stop you from completing your task, nothing of the sort happens and you bring the knife down.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
