Because you are God you can --
Judge people
Manipulate the environment as you see fit
Instill pain and suffering on those that love you
Sacrifice your Son because he believes in you
Create an alter-ego whose existence we are to acknowledge, but not listen to
Oh, God, you have so many other behaviors I have issues with. I wouldn't consider you a friend and yet I wouldn't want someone like you as an enemy. So, please, just leave me alone... I'm OK right where I am.
Seen the guys booted on the Apprentice? Their excuses are so pathetic. If I stand before God accused, I say yessir. I figure those who stand before Him pleading perfection are the blind and naked ones.
Same thing goes in everyday life. If someone points out my weakness, I have the choice of ignoring them and remaining in my unimproved state, or consider what they have to say and work to improve myself.
I think the most fearless people in our society are those who can face their real selves.
I would tell God that O.J. did it.
I would follow Robert Ingersoll's example, and invoke the Golden Rule.
"
"And suppose God was about to pass judgment upon you, what would you say?" I would say to him, "Do unto others as you would that others should do unto you." Why not?
I am told that I must render good for evil. I am told that if smitten on one cheek I must turn the other. I am told that I must overcome evil with good. I am told that I must love my enemies; and will it do for this God who tells me to love my enemies to damn his? No, it will not do. It will not do.

I have no defense. Everything I am, everything I think and feel is laid bare before You. I cannot deny, twist, excuse or rationalize away the hateful things that I have nurtured in my heart and soul toward another human being during my life time. Every time I turned away from someone in true need, You know it. Every time I would not share my excess with those in need You have seen it. The vile things I have thought have come from my mouth and You have heard it. Every unkind cutting word that has caused others hurt,You have felt it. It is thru Your Son, Jesus Christ, that I beg for forgiveness and ask that His Blood cover my transgressions that reach up to heaven if stacked one on another.
but but but... she told me she was 18!
I'd say, "Hey God! Howdjya get stuck in da fence?" Huxley
