Bryon,

I don't think the Bible is ambiguous on the idea of more than one god.  To
avoid niggling, I'd be willing to allow that possibility, although I don't
think that changes the argument.  I was going on the premise (as stated)
that the god the Christians call God, created (at least through our ancestors)
everyone on the net.  I don't think the Bible is ambiguous on this.  That
being the case, we cannot judge the Creator's actions on the same basis
that we judge our fellow creature's actions, regardless of any social
structure we devise among ourselves.  Royalty or peasantry, a human is
still a human.  Unless you claim to be one of the other gods.....
