He does feel the need to do so. That is why he is getting rid of human rule and everyone that refuse to obey him.
He has been patient, but his patience will come to an end and he will correct things.
If you were to seek for truth you would know this.
It isn't his fault people have turned their face from him and reject his just and correct way of doing things.
He has allowed human rule for a time, in his wisdom to show people what the world would be like by rejecting him. It isn't his fault they did it.And when he fixes things it will be complete and total.

Like God himself said:...
Which means that to this day, our species has lived outside of civilization for 95% of its existence. And during that time, humans have lived integrated into Nature. And as such, humans didn't feel the need to invent unseen entities
You're demented and twisted.

That's some pretty twisted thinking there.
Like God himself said:
"The Rock, perfect is his activity, For all his ways are justice. A God of faithfulness who is never unjust; Righteous and upright is he. They are the ones who have acted corruptly. They are not his children, the defect is their own. They are a crooked and twisted generation!" - Deuteronomy 32:4, 5.
The defect is their own. It isn't God's. So while yes he is perfect and didn't create anything imperfect, when the man sinned he became imperfect. When Satan sinned he became imperfect.
So they chose imperfection by themselves. God did not do it. He allowed it because he gives us free-will.
And he has chosen to allow the rebellious course of angels and man for a certain time limit. It will not always be so. He will do away with all badness and restore mankind to perfection even as he has promised.

Twisted and hopelessly brainwashed.

How deviously horrible. God is all love and peace....except when you p*ss him off. Then he's a vindictive bully.
If this is your truth then you can keep it. I don't want your genocidal delusions, thanks.
You sound like a child when he is upset that his daddy took away his toys for the sake of discipline.
Discipline serves a purpose - you can either learn from it or ignore it.
Here’s an illustration of how to learn from discipline. I hope you enjoy it; you sound like you would.

Discipline serves the purposes of the disciplinarian.

Isn't it remarkable how a discussion of religion breeds such animosity and disrespect.
I don't think we have to look farther than that for the origin.
Aliens, angels, Pokeman, nor even God itself could appear and change the mind of a 'true believer'. They would believe the aliens, and whatnot, were from the master deceiver, and they would soon have another enemy that might very well fulfill their hopeful dreams of Armageddon, in a very real way...except, possibly, for the part about them getting whisked off into heaven.

I often wonder what would happen if an Alien life form actually visited Earth publicly, so to speak and told the people of the the world that there was no God.
Would peoples of religion accept the statement, disown their idols and cease religious wars etc or would life and slaughter just carry on as normal in the name of religion?
Just a thought.
