Men rarely, if ever, manage to dream up a god superior to
themselves. Most gods have the manners and morals of a spoiled
child.

Quran (33:35) clearly states that there is forgiveness and vast reward for

much.
Clearly stating something has no bearing on its truth. The above is
nonsense. Why
should forgiveness be needed? - and if it were it would have to come from
someone
who was harmed; not from an imaginary superbeing who can't possibly be
harmed. And
why should anyone submit...to whom? Where is the virtue in giving up your
own moral
judgement and living by someone else's. Of course when you take these
questions
seriously the answer is obvious: "Allah" is just extrapolation of every
despotic
Mesopotamian king. He's vain, jealous, cruel, ruthless, demanding and
ignorant.
