All the rights belong to the creator not the created. Your problem is you want to tell God that He made you wrong, that will hold no water later on. You the clay pot got mad at the creator and put a hole in yourself and there went the water.
Oh, so a clay pot is a thinking being? It can actually conceptualize who made it and why it was made? Does a clay pot have a book stating that it will suffer eternally if it denies who made it? If your god did not want rebellion inside my mind, I should have been a pot. Yet, your concept of god gave me a questioning, active conscious. That is what separates humans from nonliving things and why we can question.
If your god only wanted me to believe, your god should have made me like a robot and not made me rational.
To paraphrase Bertrand Russell, if such a god did exist, I would ask him/her/it why it did gave me a conscious and absolutely no evidence to support a god's existence.
