God Doesn't Care

God is one of the most controversial figures in the history of mankind. Religions thrive on interpretations of God(s). However, these interpretations are contradictory, primitive (for example role of women), manipulative of human psyche (read brain wash) and revengeful. More people have been killed in the name of God than all other reasons combined. I am convinced that morality does not spring from God; morality is ingrained in human being, probably, for the need of self-preservation. I also do not need fear of any "higher authority" for me to be civil, to be empathetic towards fellow human being. Keep a keen eye on those who breath too much God; you will definitely observe some evil in them!

What is God’s identity?
Are His eyes black, brown, green or blue?
Is He Muslim, Christian, Hindu; a capitalist or a communist?
Is He omnipresent, omniscient or just struggle to survive?

If He is Allah,
Does He still supply seventy two virgin to the jihadists?
Does He still want blood of Christians, Jews and Hindus?
Did He dance fanatically at the stoning of Soraya?
Did He laugh at the death of thousands in 9/11?

If He is God,
Does He still procreate His son in a virgin's womb?
Does He still want His monolithic kingdom?
Did He weep for those children abused in church?
Did He take side when Muslims were violated in Srebrenica?

If He is Bhagwaan,
Does He belong to the higher caste or lower caste?
Does He still punish us with cycle of reincarnations?
Did He applause when Babri mosque was demolished?
Did He care when Sikhs were burnt alive in 1984?

If He is capitalist,
Is His wealth swollen by the cry of destitute?
If He is communist,
He seems to love to control everything, even, freedom.

If He is eternal, if He is the only One,
Why is the eternal One limited to
three dimensional song of opposites?
and, why is God a He, but, not a She?
