That was just a tongue in cheek response. There was no forethought or conflating the issue. The whole point is that we don't know exactly what God is. Only that He represents the Creator to us through history. So, why is emotion involved? If indeed we are created independent, freethinkers why are we pissed at Him? For what exactly? Maybe there is a good reason for the way things are? Who are we to judge our creator? So, when confronted with our "Big Daddy"... do we love Him for giving us life? Or hate Him for giving us life?
You see...this is where things get caught up. It isn't who are we to question him, but who is he to demand love from us? If a god wanted people to love it, it should either be loveable or create people without brains. Why should you say who are we? Why do you think so little of yourself that you do not consider yourself worthy of an explanation from some being that demands your love and worship?
