Believers in God want to have it both ways

Believers in God tell us "skeptics" that God is beyond the known universe and all matter, which is why we cannot test for "him" (white bearded fellow in the sky). Yet these same people claim to know and understand this same God's rules for us humans. How can you truly believe that you understand a being which is greater than the sum of everything that exists?

I am not an atheist but I am a skeptic. My feeling is that if god exists it is so far beyond the comprehension of our idiotic wants and dreams that it would be like a mosquito trying to figure out the mind of Einstein.

But religious folk want not only to believe in god, but they want this same god to be like GW Bush sitting down for a beer with them after work.

Seriously, dont be so afraid to live with uncertainty, god or no.
