Absolutely nothing but me thinks that the character depicted as the creator of the universe is just that, a character. I think that judging G-d has the same effect as judging a box of cereal.

I am confused.
The bible is plum full of directions and instructions on how to judge, when to judge, etc. and even warns that the standards with which you judge others will be the same standards with which you will be judged, yet God is to not be included in the judging process?
"Say: "O God, my God! Attire mine head with the
crown of justice, and my temple with the ornament of equity. Thou, verily, art the Possessor of all gifts and bounties." Justice and equity are twin Guardians that watch over men. From them are revealed such blessed and perspicuous words as are the cause of the well-being of the world and the protection of the nations."
Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, Baha`u'llah

Absolutely. That's what the cross of Christ is for: Process Theology of the Cross

After we are finished judging God to the best of our ability, God gets to judge us.

By the way,. the expression is "plumb full", not "plum full". "Plumb" as in straight and level, like a plumb bob, or lead weight to find the vertical straight line.

Yes, God should be held accountable for his own deeds that went against his own rules.

Actually, I would think it would be pretty easy to judge God; I wouldn't imagine he has access to too many lawyers up there.
(haha, that one never gets old).

What makes you think God went against His own rules? Even if He were to go against His rules, how would we know He did?

Of course God should be held accountable for what God does.
The Christian deity likes to punish people for the sins of their parents.
