I can’t resist one last analogy, lol: Suppose you had a loving father who cared for you, watched over you, and had goals for your life – and who was also a serial killer. If this was the case, would it really matter that your father was loving and caring to you?

If God was a person, he would be in jail, or in the electric chair.

Yep. You are spot on. On all of that.

Which does raise the question of why people construct this monster and then worship it. On the one hand, their cognitive dissonance leads them to try and avoid the realization that they created a monster (hence the whole of Christian apologetics against the Argument from Evil), because once they admitted that, their faith will be done for. On the other hand, this clearly means no one believes in god because of evidence. They need to create god for some other reason; and then have to defend it no matter what, or else they lose that other “thing,” the thing they invented god for.

IMO, that “thing” is the need to avoid the realization that we are all mortal, that perfect justice does not and never will exist, that nothing is certain or simple, and that tradition does not really comfort or help us, it only means instead that we are in thrall to cultural lies, errors, and prejudices, escaping which requires admitting we are wrong about most things and our feelings about those lies, errors, and prejudices, have been beaten into us rather than arise rationally, and therefore really, we are ignorant and irrational, and it takes a lot of time and work to become less so. A fact no one wants to admit. God is a crutch, a fig leaf, that people use to deny these things.

The rest of us grow up.
