So your god doesn't get off on it, he just doesn't give a shit.

First of all, I don't have a God. Though I'd like to believe in a deity, I haven't had any personal experiences to convince me that one exists, so I remain uncomfortably agnostic.

As for the not giving a shit part, perhaps that's true. Or perhaps God -- being an infinitely non-human entity far beyond our comprehension -- has concepts of good and evil, pleasure and pain that are completely alien to ours.

Gotcha.  Whatevs.  Bored as fuck now.

In other words, if God doesn't fit into a stereotypical caricature, you don't want to talk about Them. God either has to be a bloodthirsty tyrant or a hippie pacifist; any other concepts of God -- especially concepts of God that paint human mores as finite/trivial -- aren't worth discussing.
