Sounds good, just as long as there is no G-d.

Otherwise, I'd say this attitude would invite a good stew in some really deep doo-doo.

Think about it...would you go up to the local crime boss, get directly in his face and tell him where to get off? Seems to me he would look over to his bodyguard, give the bodyguard the knowing look, and you would be escorted out the back door to your unceremonious execution.

Rather presumptuous, I'd say. If G-d exists, the game is His, the rules are His, and you (and I) are but insignificant tokens on the board. We don't call the shots, any more than we get to dictate the laws of nature.
