Is Billy Mumy god?

Folks here may remember the classic Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life" starring Billy Mumy as a six year old child with the power to read minds and control events. If he dislikes someone he can turn them into a jack-in-the box, then "wish him to the cornfield" never to be seen again. Just using his mind he took away automobiles and electricity, then he made it snow in the summer ruining everyone's crops. But nobody complained for fear of being his next victim. The entire population of rural Peaksville, Ohio was terrified of this child monster, constantly smiling at him and thinking "only good thoughts" so he wouldn't read their minds and know they really want to kill him.

I doubt this was the TV show's intent, but it occurred to me that this is a classic story of god. Many religions require covering your head with a yarmulke or similar headgear, as recognition that "Someone above watches our every act." When I attended Hebrew School as a child I was told a yarmulke prevents god from reading your thoughts, and so your actions must be noble. Or some such nonsense. Anyway, the monster child in this Twilight Zone episode is a perfect parallel to god: He does whatever he wants and he'll smite you if you complain. You must never think bad thoughts about him either or he'll smite you. Lots of smiting! He can make it rain or snow, or be horrendously hot or cold. I bet he could have parted the sea or walked on water had that been written into the script.

But the parallel goes deeper still. Often I hear believers claim we must never question god's intent because it's beyond our understanding. And whatever he does must be praised because it's "god's will." When something good happens a believer exclaims, "Thank you Lord!" But they never blame god for burning down their house or giving Grandpa terminal liver cancer. It seems to me that from a believer's perspective, literally everything that happens is god's will and must be praised. Just like Billy Mumy's monster where people tell him, "It's good you did that, real good." Clearly god wanted you to trip and break your leg, then limp in pain for the rest of your life. So you have no business going to the doctor because that defies god's will. Same for everything else people believe god does. When believers make excuses for all the horrible things that occur on earth - mass starvation, genocides, droughts, deadly diseases, the Sandy Hook massacre - I think of the movie "Office Space" and want to ask, "What exactly would you say god does around here?" Is god omnipotent and in control of everything, or isn't he? If he helped you get that great job, then didn't he also make that car run over your dog? You can't have it both ways!
