In a way you are right because people behave as gods doing as they please as well.
And for good reason. People offer me their virgins daughters all the time--because I'm a god.

I banned worship from my followers--too pretentious. Just mail one virgin daughter a day and you'll receive my blessing.

Riddle of Epicurus:---

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent!
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent!
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

your ideas and answers please🙂

Everything after the question marks is a fallacy.

And a tad presumptuous of the nature of God. Epicurus seemed to have his own strict definition of what God is supposed to be, and his riddle debunks that God.

You have to explain when you say someone is committing a fallacy, or at least specify the fallacy.

Omnibenevolence and omnipotence are commonly advertised traits for God.

And advertisements are never wrong.

Equivocation (see that's how you point out a fallacy).

Stop talking about penises. Not everything is phallusy.
