Thank you. Well it does make a kind of sense, suggesting that we should have lived according to our limited natural means. But we were up against it. There's some sense that we ought to be a bit more responsible about the planet that we have effectively overrun, but I have no desire to return to the trees.
Id create MAN and WOMEN to only be with the opposite sex and to always remember the man is above the woman in all things.

I had a look at your details and I'd therefore say, that would indeed make things simpler. Right and Wrong is of course what is right or wrong for us - either as we theoretically could be, or as we actually are..
I'd probably make humans able to change gender at will. Not complete shapechanging, same basic face (more masculine/feminine though) but able to just have an alt-form or something.
Pretty much a world without sexism, and a world where people didn't care about homosexuality, bisexuality, etc because people could become the opposite freely.
Also, the ability for humans to use magic of some sort.
I'd make them in such a way that every one of them would have to be worthy of their dog, a better protected neck and back and that no 9ne would be allergic to animals. If everyone was worthy of their dog the world would be a better place with more love, kindness and treats.
The religion and spirituality forum is for Atheists? I mean, I would welcome Atheists in all forums, but was there some kind of club I wasn't aware of where I am trespassing?

And of course your strawman needs hardly be pointed up; nobody is saying R/S should belong only to atheists. But after a major decamp by some of our best and brightest, I'd noted that the Faithful were having it all their own way. I wanted to se some of their assertions and claims challenged. As they should be, since they are without valid foundation.
I seldom, if ever, go to the subforums. If they had one for Pantheism/ Panentheism I probably would, but they don't.
The Religion and Spirituality forum (formerly Religion and Philosophy) is pretty much a board devoted to bashing Religion and cheering any downturn & disinterest in it, or subversion of it. Single members put up hundreds of threads, almost exclusively bashing Religion in general, Religious Officials, the writings, the adherents, the doctrine, etc...any and every aspect of it that could be imagined.
Many posts say Religion is, "The worst threat to mankind", "It should be deemed a mental illness", and "People teaching Religion to their kids should be cited and jailed for child abuse", and on and on.
You could not find another board for anything anywhere, that the majority of the content is people criticizing the subject of that board and those that are interested in it! Basically stating the world would be better off without the subject of the board existing!
You wouldn't get as much of that for a board on "Military Weaponry & Waging War", as you do for this "Religion and Spirituality board!!
As far as the, "If I was God..." question. I am God...and so is everybody and everything else.
If I, individually, had a determinant influence on how humans were created...I would make it so that I was the onl....Nah, nevermind.
