The common God (bound by religion) is extremely retarded. The first obstacle is the realization that there's no real proof to the existence of a God but a hearsay and a book from thousand of years ago. That by itself would make it hard to any rational person to accept God even if he will do so. The second obstacle is to what religion should we subscribe? what makes one religion the true religion? Let's cut down the list to the Abrahamic religions (Christianity, Islam, Judaism) By doing so, we are assuming that God exist and that one of those three are the right one. Ambiguity on ambiguity.
So, what is the right one? and why? The unbiased answer is that there is no proof (just like with god) and you need to assume or believe, once again. Basically, you're playing russian roulette. It would be easier to cope with Islam if you're born into an Arab country, Christianity in the west, Judaism to a jewish family. But we care about the truth here not about coping, so how would we know? we can't.
God giving us a math test but we can't look! There are no questions or answers. You have to scribble it yourself in the hopes that it's right. you didn't do shit, it's dumb luck. Choosing the right religion (if there is one) is nothing more than dumb luck, why would God seriously take that into consideration? Imagine failing a kid in class because he couldn't answer a question that wasn't even there.
Some would say that there is overlap between Islam and Judaism (Both will go to heaven) but what about Christian people? And what if there is no overlap? I only saw a handful of people claiming this. On paper it's better to take your chances and pick one, if you miss you miss. But then again it's just russian roulette.
If god was a known entity as in he would actually show up to the world and say here I am worship me or go to hell, now we have something to talk about. Now it's either you listen to him or you're in trouble. You have a test + you know the answer, the only question is if you would write it down or go play outside. We can argue about the idea of a God that care so much about validation from humans but that's a fair test, not the current one. (if he does exist and have one right way)
I can only judge him that way if humanity is right and he does care about us and want us to get into religion. If he doesn't exist, fail. If he does exist but doesn't give a fuck, fail. Anyway, the consequences of religion are ridiculous.
