Whateverist, I'm reluctant to agree for two reasons:
1. People generally grant their fallibility but not God's. When projecting their inner voice onto God, they're more resistant to contradicting that voice, even when presented very good reason to do so.
2. How much wasted time and energy is invested into this fabrication that serves no one but the inflation of the individual ego? If one can treat God like anything else-- and indulge in moderation, then that's one thing but... That never happens unless the person is largely irreligious to begin with.
