But between you and The Tree of Knowledge, He is terribly insecure.\" \"Insecure? He made the entire bloody universe! He's omnipotent.\" \"Exactly! Almost neurotic, isn't it? All this worshiping, morning, noon, and night. It's 'Oh Praise Him, Oh Praise Him, Oh Praise the Everlassssting Lord.' I don't call that omnipotent. I call it pathetic.
