The question in general shows a lack of understanding of the "god/God" concept as a whole. Many people are quick to apply human concepts to God...why would God have to abide by human rules/beliefs/ethics/etc? At a basic level, God has no responsibilities to humans. What if we're just a big experiment? When scientists are observing an animal species, do the scientists have responsibilities to those animals?
The only responsibility God has is what he has promised to do. Humans can assign Him all the responsibilities they want, but all they're doing is applying their own unfounded expectations to a being they have no right to do so.
Well said

I took the question as an opinion poll from what each person thinks from their religious background and knowledge. If god has a responsibility to do what he has promised, what are those promises. It's not about people applying their own unfounded expectations upon god. I guess for me, any religion has many different interpretations so it's interesting to see what other people think god brings to the table.

I understood the question differently I guess...along the lines of what are the government's responsibilities to its citizens.

I can see that side of it as well. I do agree that it's difficult to apply our worldly rules to that of someone how is, in theory, from a place where those things really wouldn't apply.
