I wouldn't be so quick to laugh at God. Jesus, the Word, became incarnate to be our model of holiness. On the Mountain of the Transfiguration, God commanded: "Listen to him!”.
Jesus said: "Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me." "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me." and gave us the Beatitudes.
Jesus is the model for the Beatitudes and of the New Covenant: "Love one another as I have loved you." This love requires an honest offering of oneself after His example.
Those of us who believe in Beatitude and are on this "narrower" path encourage our brethren by example, and bear striking witness "that the world cannot be transfigured and offered to God without the spirit of the beatitudes. Some live their situation in the spirit of the Beatitudes, loving God and serving our neighbors as we would be served. Others choose a different path as Original Sin permits.
Learn the difference.
