Lets assume that God is (or was) real. Lets also use the bible to identify him/her/it.

Generally, the catholic community recognizes god as a loving, forgiving, all powerful, all knowing, peaceful, and the only God that exist.

The bible, the holy book for catholics, has a little bit of a different opinion.

All Loving
>God has murdered hundreds and thousands in the bible. Those who stood against his will even slightly were prime candidates for death. ex. Luke 19:27

Forgiving
>...for I the lord thy god am a jealous god, visiting onto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me. Exodus 20:5

All powerful
>About half of the acts attributed to God's power were the work of man, such as the slaughter of the 1st born in Egypt which Moses claimed to be God's power. Also, an all powerful being, for some reason, needs humans to do his work shows that they are not all powerful.

All knowing
>Why would an all knowing god need to "test" people? Why does an all knowing god ask questions, such as in the story of Cain and Abel.
Why does god need someone to count the people if he should already know (1 Chronicle 21:1)

Peaceful
>Assuming that God, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus are all one in the same being, what Jesus says should also be the opinion of God. "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth. I came not to send peace but a sword. Matthew 10: 34

Only god
>Nowhere in the bible does it say that God is the only God. It does say that it is wrong to worship other gods however.

Therefore, according to the bible, "god" is not all powerful, not all knowing, loving only to those who blindly follow, not always forgiving, not peaceful, and not the only god, should other gods exist.

Assuming "God" exist, he/she/it is about the same as man.
