*giggles* Well yes, true! But doesn't a God deserve the respect to not question an order? If you want to take the hardcore religious approach, then God has granted you everything you possess and having the chance to show your graditude one-on-one would be a great honor. Why waste it by coming off as a greedy little bastard? Besides, it's a situation that needs to be carefully considered. Maybe the God would be pleased that you followed the order immediately and grant you your heart's deepest desire? But when you enrage him/her by putting conditions on it, maybe he/she will just go "Okay, here you go, take a million bucks" and poof and never bless you again? See? So many options! ^_^;
in my belief system, gods have very human hearts/minds. And I believe that while being a sniveling, subordinant underling is a good thing, it should also be good to gain the respect of a God by treating him/her as an equal.
So if I was a God, and came accross a person who treated me as any old fellow who just happens to have omnipresence and whatnot, I would humor them with the barter. After all, I *am* a god, I can afford it. I mean, what a brave thing to do! Maybe I would make the person my buddy and chat him up again sometime.
