Abstrakt: This article focuses on God, a tyrannical, egotistical, deceitful, violent unscrupulous, and blood-thirsty divine entity transfixed by all the manifestations of power. His instinct for domination has no limits and he rules absolutely. He even has his son Jesus crucified in his quest for power and to expand his divine control over the world. My work also analyzes differentiated, disruptive, and boundary-breaking practices whose intent is to undermine the power of God and create a path for humanization to take root as an alternative to both an authoritarian God and Christianity.
