Yes. I'm a Christian, so I believe there is only one answer. You're not a Christian though. So, I'm going to explain the problem, or
why we have to be reconciled with God.
We don't follow God. We follow our own path. It may be intentional defiance or it may be lack of faith in God. The thing is, God is
the creator and ruler of everything. He has the right to everything.
Okay, I'm going to have to interject right here, and say how I think about the matter. I'm going to be doing this a lot during the
whole reply, so if you won't be swayed either way, you can tune out now. Anywho, while God may have been the ultimate creator of
everything, I must say that even if you came up with the idea, it might be your intellectual property, but it's certainly not yours.
Y'see, the way intellectual property works is that you come up with an idea, and when you get the rights to the idea, you have the
rights to say yea or nay to anyone that wants to make an implementation of the idea. However, once they recieve the rights to use the
instance of the idea's form, you, as the intellectual property owner, cannot actually take the property from the new owner. It's still
your intellectual property, but the physical property is theirs, and you have no claim whatsoever to it. I know that according to you,
His Holiness created everything in the universe, but he didn't touch it until a couple of thousand years later, when Biblical times
came along, and anything that happened in between was without His hand in it. Animals reproduced, ate, slept, and when they were born,
they were not just created. The whole process of conception and birth went smoothly without Him, and any creation that appeared to
happen was the result of subroutines He came up with so He wouldn't have to deal with all this.
The reason I digress into the topic of this supposed period of nonintervention is that in modern day, conception appears to work in
much the same way it did back then. Evolution can't exist (that would imply that the Earth is older than 6000 yrs. old -- GASP), so
nothing changed. Therefore, God doesn't have a hand in birth. He doesn't, and can't possibly be responsible for everyone's
characteristics any more than he is responsible for creating the universe.
The other thing about intellectual property is that it runs out after 14 years; so God can't possibly own, or have any rights to us,
at all whatsoever. QED.
