Alex, there's a lot of points I'd have responded to in the above but I'm sure Esquilax will respond in due course.
However, regarding your point about being angry with god. This is false. It's impossible to be angry with something that doesn't exist.
It's actually a parody of your own beliefs, nothing more.
When we criticise or laugh at your beliefs, we are not doing the same to you, personally. Beliefs are not sacrosanct. Indeed, religious beliefs are simply ideas, and ideas are not above ridicule or criticism.
