Because they don't realize how good He is and how much He loves them.
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
Romans 2:4
The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
Psalm 145:9

If you devise a thing,wouldn't you assign a name,a function of a purpose or whatever to it.It's human nature.Having Found(discovered or invented,or whatever) a God,we did what we knew the best ie assign all the things and functions to him which were humanly impossible or unachievable.We haven't stopped in adding to that list.So,we accept as we want him to be,because otherwise we don't know what he is like.

Hmmm...exactly WHO do you think HE is? To begin with, your question assumes that God exists...also, people can only structure their thinking based on their experiences so what God is to 1 person (or not) isn't the same to another...how do you know that when I see the colour blue that it is the same thing that you see when you look at the colout blue?

Because he is not real - he is made up. And people would be pretty stupid to make up a god they did not like.
You can see that there is no definitive identity to god by the vast range of branches, sects and cults in the world. If you think there is a definitive view then you have just proved the point by placing your idea of god above everyone elses without any real justification.

This is what has caused problems, people creating God in their image, it does nothing to promote religion.

If you are versed the your accept Allah SWT, if you are not then you refute him. Pick up the pen and read, read from your Lord who created you from a sensitive drop of blood.

i would prefer that god conform to my thinking, rather than yours (or whoever is speaking). if god really exists, he needs to speak for himself, i don't need to hear about him second hand.

Man invented God so what right does He have to rule them?
