Religion is one big excuse for god

If you define god as being omniscient and omnipotent, then you have no recourse but to develop a philosophy of god that is mostly one giant excuse for god not acting in the world. The reasoning is something like this "since god is omniscient and omnipotent, something must be wrong with humans, since he's obviously not taking care of us". Hence the anti-human leanings of all religions.

Note to the religious cowards out there - instead of spending your time making excuses for god, demand that god put up or shut up. If he exists and can take care of the world, then he must.

Look at the vast power that exists in the universe. And look at the measly amount given to us residing on this planet. If this is the best god can do, then god has failed.
