I do not wish God to be a god I would want to be separated from -- and I do not think it is the case.
However, many interpretations of scripture are, if true, those of a god I would prefer not to spend eternity with. I pray those interpretations are wrong, for God's sake as much as mine.

You’ve just created a god in your own image - a clear-cut violation of Commandments 1 and 2. The interpretation is crystal clear, my friend.
You’re trusting in your own righteousness and cleverness to save you from the fire to come. They will not.
