What happens when you are forced to choose between two people...one of which will 'feel wronged' when making an unavoidable decision? Doesn't this demonstrate faulty 'moral logic' -- naturally your response will be something along the lines of "i would decide which would be less wronged"....this of course denoting a sort of all-seeing wisdom...which then infers a kind of deity state, which gets back to zloduska's point that your 'god' is but an imaginary friend you've customized based on your psychological needs and wants + your cultural identity and its inherent value systems. How pretentious and blinded that sounds..mixed with denial of course.
