Why do fundamentalists hate God so much, I wonder? What did he supposedly do to them to deserve such hatred? Why would they keep portraying him as an incompetent, vindictive, petty tyrant that can't handle even the easiest divine tasks? The answer is quite trivial. They don't need God for anything other than to justify their own will, their insane conservatism and insecurity. They don't need God to serve as a moral ideal, they need him to be an ultimate Big Brother to threaten unbelievers and infidels with. They need him as an excuse for their every deed. They want God to be their puppet and to add to it force him to provide them with eternal bliss. And consciously or not they're too scared to become atheists, agnostics or even liberal believers and loose their group identity.
