    who puts a fruit tree right in front of a married couple that he created with free will and natural curiosity and tells them they shouldn't eat the yummy, juicy fruit that is like no other in the garden and just because its sparkly and animals will talk to you around it doesn't mean i was kidding.

    and then decides to punish every human to ever exist because one married couple took a bite.

    . . . . that creates all humans on earth, but then has a "chosen" people (Isrealites) and allows them to fight wars and kill in his name.

    How about a God who promises to "bless" you per Malachi 3:10 by "opening up the floodgates of the heavens" to you, yet despite all your efforts and contributions, you continually get the shaft at work, in the congregation, and even at home. Meanwhile, Brother PO, whom you know is a (insert infraction here, in my case crooked business dealings and partiality in the cong.) gets a brand new $30k vehicle every two years, has a "perfect" family, and his biggest worry is whether or not the KH is in shape for the CO's visit! Then sitting on the other side of the Hall is old Sister "Dirt Poor", a widow who walks with a cane and often has to bum a ride to the meetings, worries about where she's going to move to the next time she gets evicted for not having rent money, yet she's always out in service getting 30+ hours a month. Sure, you may have it better off than Sister Dirt Poor, but she gets more time in service than you AND the PO, meanwhile the PO is getting 10-12 hours a month compared to your 15. The question is, where are those "open floodgates" of the heavens for you and sister Dirt Poor until there is NO MORE WANT!???

    So we have a God who plays favorites and makes empty promises...

    Only a God who is insecure needs exclusive devotion

    Only a cruel God would allow people to suffer and then destroy humanity just to prove he is better than an angel.

    Well He gave you FREEDOM to do as you ruddy well like So DONT worship HIM

    But it sounds to ME you do a bit of worshipping yourself sweetie ...I dont mean that to sound nasty,But It seems so silly to me to declare to all what you DONT want to do. Tell us something you DO want to do. Maybe volunteer at a food kitchen, or help the homeless, or help the aged across the street? Tell Granny what you do want to do. Instead of standing there stamping your feet .

    Grandma Mouthy, there are millions of people around the globe that are doing humanitarian things out of compassion and empathy to help others

    which are totally separated from any religious background.

    Religions like the JWS are a prime example of what damaging effect they dispose toward humanity and why they are a danger.

    It is obvious that there are many religious groups that help the needy and we should be thankful for their heartfelt intentions.

    It should also be noted though that these deeds can also be accomplished and instigated without a religious proponent attached to it.

    Maybe what Oompa was trying to imply is perhaps there is more of Man in God when we further investigate his deeds and actions as a spiritual being.
