       You're trying to compare apples with buldozers. I appears to be an obvious   
   horribly dishonest attempt at a trick, but if you want people to think there's   
   some honest aspect to it then try to explain what you want them to think it   
   could be. If you can't, or your attempted explanation sux as badly as your   
   comparisons, then it will be extremely strong evidence if not actual proof that   
   you tried to get away with a horribly dishonest trick which so far it appears   
   clear that you have.   
      
   >Now explain how all these are one and the same as your favourite flavour

       YOU need to explain how YOU want people to think they could all be the same   
   as a God who created ("different beliefs about the nature of (the creator)   
   God")   
   and influenced life on Earth since YOU are the one who is making the what   
   appears to be a retardedly dishonest comparison.
