And look at how many people, both in fiction and in RL, have been killed by that line of thinking. To have nigh absolute power and no sense of right and wrong makes for a dangerous combination, just look at the GoD for proof of that. And if they're truly going to conduct themselves in such a fashion, then I daresay Remnant is better off without them. And I hope the group begins to feel the same way, life is hard enough without a pair of deities powerful enough to erase the whole planet if provoked. The age of gods and magic has passed, man has learned to live without both, hopefully even the gods see that and decide to move on. Honestly, wouldn't be surprised if the conclusion of the series is that the gods come back and actually agree that humanity has reached a point where they past the test only for someone, maybe Ruby, to basically tell them to buzz off and that they were part of the problem in the first place. Were the gods not so accessible people wouldn't feel so inclined to seek them out for favors and the whole mess would have been avoided.
