"No, he only has feelings becuz we do. We created him, he didn't create us, therefore without us or our feelings, he wouldn't exist or obviously have feelings."
| Yeah. That sounds about right.

Yah  young minds of any age don't realize that they're looking in a mirror (individually or collectively as a society) when they interact with their god. I wish more people understood that. The world would be a much happier place.

Chap, regardless of why God has feelings, he has them, right?
Is he not then, subject to the same weaknesses humans have?
For example, getting angry and destroying entire villages and nations?
