Buzzkill? You need to "partake of nature's bounty", at least pull one more tube.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Really? Your answer IS in the OP. Actually, you jello-head, it's exactly the answer to that question.

Facepalm christ! The title of the very thread is named, If I Was God.


How do you not see this?!?!

I mean, forget the comparison to the Christian religion and tell me how it would be? Welsh cake nailed it and that is my very point. Life is not perfect as to be perfect, but complete perfection would be boring or incomplete or imperfect. Any thoughts

Like playing any video game in god-mode for too long, it would be unbelievably boring.

So are the rules necessary or is that the perfection you desire or would you desire a little less because it would make it a little more interesting?

Yeah, I've got thoughts...

My thoughts are: when you make a thread you can put any crazy shit in there you want to. Arbitrary rules, pictures of jesus turning into a cracker, whatever the hell you want. You should see some of the wacked out shit Sae posts. SO, if I choose to throw in some arbitrary rules that you don't want to play by, thats your business and it does not concern me - but please don't tell me how to post in the thread I started. The whole point was to show the idiocy of your religion.

Furthermore, nowhere in my OP did I (as GOD) claim to create a "perfect" universe as you are eluding to above. Please pay attention.

You make that classic classic error of automatically
assuming that perfection would be boring even though
as a human you have zero experience of it - least in the
eternal objective sense. Do you not think that perfection by
definition, would negate even the possibility of boredom ? You
would actually be on such a high mental plane that event the mere
comprehension of it would be an alien conept to you. If you had eternal
mental stimulation hard wired into you to prevent aforementioned boredom
then what you suggest would be non-existent and for ever too. I myself would love to
live in a perfect world where everything was flawless and to my satisfaction and for so long
that time itself would be superfluous to requirement and I suspect that you deep down would too
