I have a personality as a result of my physiological development and my life experiences acting in a way that influence my consciousness, not to mention hereditary traits that also dictate various facets of my persona. My personality is bound by certain criteria - namely that it resides in my brain and manifest through my actions. I don't have the ability to change the parameters of this arrangement, nor am I an all powerful being that is given necessary authority over natural law.
Now can you please explain how your obfuscation is at ALL relevant to the conversation at hand?

So you're saying God acts in a certain nature because he feels like it. May I ask why?

And why is that?

Seriously, stop presenting tautology.
The Christian God is the creator because he is the creator.
Great argument there.

And you miss the point entirely. I'm asking why he would necessarily create a certain order or natural law, rather than no law/order or a different law/order.
If your answer is "Because he felt like it", then on what basis are you establishing the motive and intentions of such a being?
