If Brahma creates everything in this universe, I am most certainly unimpressed by his very sick sense of humour. Why? Because he created my greed, hatred, and delusion too! If Brahma really creates everything, isn’t it sick and ridiculous that he also creates suffering and imperfections, and also my post to ridicule him here in this forum?

Base on what criteria did Brahma create beings who are inferior than us? Base on what criteria did Brahma create beings who are superior than us? Did he create himself? Why did he create imperfect beings like us? Did He enjoy imparting suffering onto us too? There is no answer to these questions. But there are some religions who might tell people that the Creator is putting us to THE TEST. And the ONLY way to end our suffering is to love and worship him unconditionally, then can we wash away our sins. How naive and simple-minded these people can be. These ignorant people mistaken the workings of Dhamma to be the works of a creator God, which is baseless. Let us not forget that even the Buddha had to respect the Dhamma.

If by wishing and worshipping a creator god can help us end suffering, we would have attained liberation long ago. We have lived forever since beginning-less time, remember?
