Was it necessary to create anything?

It's a very good point, an argument which highlights the extreme absurdity of it all.

Taking the bible as an example, he just starts pulling stuff out his ass with no explanation as to why, even though he is apparently ghost writing it. Or should that be Holy Ghost writing it?

It makes no sense that an all powerful being would need to do anything. From reading his story, the only motivations appear to be company and worship. But not company as an equal, he makes that pretty clear when he thinks men might be achieving that. So he just wants to make people to tell him how great he is. But he knows how great he is, and knows everything. Where is this insecurity coming from and why doesn't he magic it away?

Of course, once you turn it round that it's just man projecting himself it all makes perfect sense.
