No, it's that I never agreed to be part of any cosmic system of either worshiping a deity for eternity or suffering eternal torment, yet according to Christians that's the system that we're all bound by, just because that's the way their god wants it. Unless God can show the contract I signed stating that I agree to such terms, he has no right to send me to eternal torture.
BTW, a painting or clay pot are inanimate objects. A better analogy would be like if I managed to create some new form of sentient life in a lab, and then be allowed to destroy it at will just because I created it. That is not a right or moral position. Nor would it be to force that new sentient life to worship me as its creator or else throw it into the furnace.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
