How long do you reckon we have until the non-theists are allowed to talk about it. 
'sits in the religious forum waiting room '

Why didn't  you ask theists with the usernames that start with the letters ( H  ,  F , and uummmmmm C )  oh and ( D ) 

I suggest you pull ya head in. 
This aint no cattle train. 

Thanks boss. 
Let us know hey ?

The god you refer to is no more powerful than any other god. I don't worship or work with him for a reason.

I am speaking of personality/psyche of the god, not actual utility.

Being powerful or even truly capable doesn't excuse narcissism.

You really cannot speak for any theist or atheist other than yourself. Defining someone's stance as other than it is does not actually change their stance at all

Theism does not. The Abrahamic religions do. Quit lumping every single person that believes in life after death as a theist that subscribes to a****** gods should be able to be a****** gods. Because if you continue to do it and not point the finger at yourself as someone who claims to be a pagan then you're a liar.

Describe the personality of your creator to me.

I reckon god would be narcissistic and if nit, at least sociopathic in my own outlook and prediction


Honestly I am kind of agnostic or atheistic if it comes to being sure god is worthy of worship. I believe there is a creator but idk if it deserves worship

I don't believe the creator of the universe is a god in the same way we look at gods. The infinite intelligence that created everything acts only in a way that's good for someone. It has to follow natural law and natural law is a lot of love so they can't do anything outside of that. Now gods like we think of them, are interdimensional beings they have evolved and exist in a ego manner the same way humans do. They have personalities, they have wants, they have desires, they have good intentions and bad intentions. Now one of the gods that I work with, Wodan, is attributed with being a Creator but he is not my Creator he created the people in his dimension on his worlds. I'm simply able through certain practices to access him and information from him and do work for/ with him.

They literally made the law of love and what do you even mean
When we kill a farm animal how is that a law of love?

Do you consider a tiger evil ? What God does a tiger worship when it kills? You want to argue with me about killing for sport I'll argue with you because I don't do that, I won't argue about killing animals for food. Plants are living things I believe everything has a spirit me eating broccoli for me morally is no different than eating deer meat. You are more than welcome to disagree with that and I'm okay with that you can even feel I'm a hypocrite on that I don't care. I had a book on natural law and I cannot find it right now if you look up the seven hermetic natural laws they all revolve around everything working towards good which is basically everything working towards love.

Same.
I mean, I don't necessarily think there are any infinitely powerful gods (I have grown agnostic on the point after a few conversations with a Platonist I know), but I do think that certain gods are dicks and some are less so.
I don't worship or work with YWHY, Zeus, etc. because of my thoughts on them.

Remember that the Inca's sacrificed children to their Gods.  Child sacrifice in the Incan Empire was performed as part of the capacocha ritual. Children were chosen because they were thought to be the purest of society, therefore the best people to offer to the gods. Previous research suggests victims would be chosen many years in advance—hair samples from victims indicated they were "fattened up" in the years leading to their deaths.

What do you mean by love, I know what I mean by love. I certainly would limit how attached or sympathetic I allow myself to be with someone who's an atheist. I would also do the same thing with someone who I was very good friends with who stabbed me in the back. But to be specific I would have to know what you mean by love.

Yep...The Incas believed in non-sense too and a fat lot of good it did them.

Their GODDO clearly forgot to tell them about the Spanish.

Obviously not enough fat kids.
