God resembles a corrupt politician or even a dictator.
If you analyze politicians (and dictators) you will find that god has similar characteristics.
God
-above all, demands loyalty, gratitude, and obedience.
-praises himself for being powerful, good, just, etc.
-threatens to punish all skeptics and those who criticize him.
-condemns critics without giving them a chance (fair trial) to defend themselves.
-is elusive and not available to answer hard questions about his accountability.
-makes great promises, but it's highly doubtful if they will be fulfilled.
-blames all problems and evil on his opponent.
-says he cares about your situation, but, other than words, nothing will change.
-don't open your mouth unless it's to praise him.
If you ask me, I'd say god is merely the scapegoat for a bunch of "men of god" who more closely resemble corrupt politicians or dictators.
Why are you so mad at a concept but not the real life people who take advantage of it?
why is it people that dont follow god want to blame him when something goes rong. but do they praise him when something goes right?? if you can critasie something u must be able to credit it as well. we all have issues n problems i for 1 am a christaian n do struggle with day to day life. but ive seen the great things god has dun in my life n people around me. i praise him when times are good n praise him for when times are tuff. when are u going to realise we do not live in a perfect world. this world is what u make of it. evil is around us. its god who will take us through it.
People who don't follow God neither praise nor blame him, seeing as how they don't believe in him to begin with.

Can you give references? Are you talking about the God found in the Christian Bible or some other God. Or an idea of God in your own head?

John 14: 6Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. EXTREME EGOTISTICAL ARROGANCE
John 3:18
"He who believes on Him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already. MORE ARROGANCE AND EXTREMELY SELF CENTERED
Mat 13:41-42
"The Son of Man shall send out His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who do iniquity, and shall cast them into a furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth." CRUELTY, NO TOLERANCE OF ANYTHING EXCEPT HIS OWN WILL
Revelations 22:13
"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end." MORE EXTREME SUPERIORITY..."MY WAY OR THE HIWAY"

'he' is far worse than any corrupt politician (mere amateurs), or even a dictator, including the worst of the worst, Hitler, Mussolini, Genghis Khan, etc. combined. No one else has killed by drowning 99.99999% of all life on the planet, doomed untold numbers to eternal torture, and for such trivial matters as not paying homage to 'him'.
