Parents As An Analogy
Well, here's the thing about the religion I find funny. Among many other things, but this is one of the big ones for me.
Any child will often grow up and grow away from their parents. A true mature parent would allow their children to grow up and find their own way.
The Christian God and other gods doesn't do this. They want their children to follow their every word to the letter of the law.
If they were truly mature, wouldn't these Gods allow their children to grow and find their own way without them, but still keep a positive relationship with their children?
