TheOneAndOnlyGod

Elian Frias Aldo (born March 18, 1988), better known as TheOneAndOnlyGod or God, is a former Doggish politician and political pundit. They were an associate Supreme Court justice and were the first Minister of Education, former leader of the Justice Party, former mayor of Rotsibaai, and served as a Member of the National Assembly of Doggerland until their death. They were also the Archbishop of Doggerland for the Greek Orthdox Church and the Bishop of Nandels Bay for the Catholic Church.

Early Life
God (born Nicolas Frias Aldo) was born on March 18, 1988, to Patricia Frias Aldo and Romeo Aldo, in Mistlân, Zuidvis. Their parents emigrated to Doggerland in the 1970s as children, during the reign of Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines, and settled in the Whitehall district of Mistlân. Raised in the mixed English-Dutch neighborhood, they were raised speaking both languages fluently, as well as speaking Tagalog conversatioanally.

God attended Weststream Primary School and King Caribou Secondary School. They took an interest in politics and law at King Caribou Secondary School. God often attributes this to their friend, Cedar Scott, and their history teacher, Fedde van Slaavas. They often associated with the left-wing of Doggerland politics, often participating in protests and social activism. God majored in law at the University of the City of Mistlân, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Law in 2009, before attending a 5-year law program between 2009-2014.

They eventually became a real-estate attorney in 2015. They served under the Johnson & Johanneson in Rotsibaai, one of the most prestigious law firms in Zuidvis. As an attorney, God controversially gave a permit to the Trump Resort and Casino in downtown Rotsibaai in April 2017. God continued to be an attorney while simultaneously being the mayor of the city. God became a judge in June 2019, and held the position for a one-and-a-half years, before resigning to become leader of the Justice Party.

Greek Orthodox Church
God was the Archbishop of Doggerland for the Greek Orthdox Church. This was due to a clerical error made in May 2012 that has remained unchanged. God had practically no power in this position, due to there being only fifteen Doggish citizens who identify as Orthodox Christians, twelve of whom are Russian Orthodox, and the remaining three being Greek Orthodox.

As Archbishop of Doggerland, God has petitioned the Church to allow same-sex marriage, polyamory, and the easing of relations with the Catholic Church, Judaism, and Islam, in the hopes of forming a single Abrahamic religion. God also wished the Church disavowed all belief in the Abrahamic God and the Bible and instead follow the teachings of Fred Rogers, an American TV host.

As Archbishop of Doggerland, God alienated many members of the Greek Orthodox Church in Doggerland. The membership when they died of three people is half the number of what it orignially was when they became archbishop. The Greek Orthodox Church was in the process of removing God from the office when they died, but they were reinstated upon their resurrection. God officially resigned on June 4, 2021, most likely due to them moving to the Netherlands.

Catholic Church


God was the Bishop of the Diocese of Nandels Bay for the Catholic Church from August 2017 to June 2021. This was due to blackmail of Pope Francis.

As bishop, God petitioned the Church to allow same-sex marriage, polyamory, and the easing of relations with the Orthodox Churches, Judaism, and Islam, in the hopes of forming a single Abrahamic religion. As Bishop of Nandels Bay, God alienated many members of the Catholic Church in the region, and was consistently unpopular among the Catholics of Doggerland.

In March 2021, God condemned the Vatican's statement against same-sex unions. On June 4, 2021, God resigned from the position.

Mayor of Rotsibaai (2016-2020)
God served as mayor of Rotsibaai between March 27, 2016, and March 27, 2020, as part of the Labor Worker's Party. Becoming mayor at the age of 28, they were the city's youngest mayor. While mayor, God strengthened Rotsibaai's public transport and reformed the city's education system. Whilst God won the 2020 mayoral election, they decided their deputy mayor, Valerie van der Bijl, should serve the following term due to God's worsening COVID-19 infection, which they eventually survived.

Leader of the Justice Party (January 2021 - February 2021)
On January 26, 2021, following the Doggerland political crisis of January 2021, God became leader of the Justice Party, taking over from the previous leader, Mila DeVries. This marked the end of the DeVries family's hold of power in the party.

God chose DryCleaningBuffalo to be the deputy leader of the Justice Party. Following negotiations with the Labor Worker's Party and the United Left People's Party, the Justice Party became part of the Forward! Alliance for Progressive Action.

At 1:59 P.M. EST, on February 17, 2021, God announced the immediate dissolution of the Justice Party and its merger with the Labor Worker's Party. God claims this was for the betterment of their cause.

National Assembly of Doggerland (January 2021 - April 2021)
God was elected to the National Assembly of Doggerland following the January 2021 legislative elections. God served as a Justice Party MP for half a month, a Labor-Worker's MP, and a Doggerland Left MP. During this time, God voted yes on progressive laws, but came in a mild amount of conflict with the rest of the Forward! Alliance.

Minister of Education (January 2021 - February 2021)
God was promised the leadership of the Ministry of Education by Kevin Trevor during early negotiations on forming a coalition, and they were made the Minister of Education following the January 2021 legislative elections. God is often considered to be the Minister of Education who did the least during their long tenure. This is because God proposed no legislation and did not commit to any reforms while holding the ministership.

Leader of the Anti-Monarchy Alliance (February 2021)
God was elected as the leader of the Anti-Monarchy Alliance in the morning of February 24, 2021. This was despite their role on the Supreme Court. They resigned later that night for unkown reasons.

Member of the Anarcho-Garfieldist Party
On February 24, 2021, God unexpectedly announced their departure from the Labor Worker's Party to join the Anarcho-Garfieldist Party, a satire party. This continued until March 16, 2021, when God rejoined the Labor Worker's Party.

The Day of Three Parties
April 10, 2021 is known as the Day of Three Parties because God shifted between three different political parties that day. Starting the day in the Labor Worker's Party, they joined the Populist Party at 4:40 P.M. EST. This lasted six minutes until God made another announcement. They joined the United Left People's Party, later the Doggerland Left, at 4:46 P.M. EST.

Retirement and Departure
God formally retired from politics effective May 16, 2021 at 12:00:01 am. They departed from Doggerland on June 4, 2021, saying, "God sees no hope in the future of Doggerland."

Appointment
God was chosen to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Doggerland by acting Prime Minister Mel on February 17, 2021. God was forced to resign from the National Assembly and from the Ministry of Education to become associate justice. Their appointment was considered controversial as many viewed the nomination as corrupt. This was due to the sudden merger of the Labor Worker's Party and the Justice Party hours before the appointment. Many thought this was a move by Mel to expand his party in exchange for God to become an associate justice.

Associate Justice
God served on the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Arjun between Febuary 17, 2021, to the Supreme Court's dissolution on March 16, 2021.

Later Career
God regularly appears on DIN as a political pundit and commentator, discussing news and politics on television.

God founded Heaven's Bread, a worker cooperative bakery based in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

"God" Nickname
God earned the nickname following a gaffe in a 2016 campaign speech. They mistakenly referred to themselves when talking about God, stating, "When I created the world..." God quickly fixed the mistake, but the moment went viral on social media platforms, where users quickly started to refer to them as "God". Soon after, God endorsed the usage of the nickname, and it was used in official mayoral campaign materials. By 2017, users on atheist message boards began to call God "TheOneAndOnlyGod." Pieter van der Berg wrote in the De Zuidvis Dagblad, "It seems this nickname is being used as a protest against the religious establishment and against religious institutions. By claiming Aldo to be the one and only God, users are claiming that God does not exist, and that anybody could be God if they claimed. Thus, users are saying that if anybody claiming to be God could be God, then what's to say God even exists."

Civil Rights
God is in favor of equal rights for all citizens of Doggerland, and the expansion of civil rights to all minorities and the banning of discriminatory laws and policies using federal law. They also believe the only ethnicity that should be exempted from this are Italians, with God saying they would have liked all Italians to be discriminated against more heavily in Doggerland. God is in favor of allowing more immigrants and refugees in Doggerland, viewing it as a moral right and as a benefit to the economy of the nation. The only immigrants God is against was Italian immigration.

Italians


God is known for their radical hatred of the people of Italy, wanting to detain, deport, and execute every 3rd, 2nd, and 1st generation Italian immigrant in Doggerland. While the root of this hatred is unknown, God is often seen physically assaulting Italians.

Taxation
God favors higher taxes for the upper classes and the wealthy, and tax cuts for the working class. This was to remove burden from the working classes and to better fund social programs and welfare in Doggerland. However, God prefers to see the Italians get higher taxes.

Expansion of the Federal Government
God believes in the expansion of the federal government. They believe in nationalizing healthcare and education in Doggerland to provide equal care and aid to all classes of Doggish society. However, God believs Italians should not be provided for under national programs.

Foreign Policy
God is against Doggish intervention in foreign wars. Instead, they favor wielding soft power and diplomatic leverage against nations which they believe to be in violation of human rights. However, God wants to invade, conquer, and destroy Italy.

Assault of Constituents


While mayor of Rotsibaai, God was known to frequently yell insults at constituents, especially those who disagreed with their mayoralship. God was also known to sometimes physically assault constituents. The main victims of God's assaults were Italians, whom God has a radical hatred against. This included a 4 year-old boy who wanted a hug from God, who was left with lethal brain and chest injuries from the assault. He later died at a hospital due to the injuries inflicted. This led to severe criticism from the media, social media users, and other politicians. However, God's approval rating skyrocketed to 97% following the incident, seen as a consequence of Rotsibaai's hatred of children.

"Jerks" Incident
Following a January 2021 poll, God earned a net approval rating of +17.5% (the 3rd highest among partisan leaders). This would lead to God lashing out at the nation, yelling "Which of you jerks disapprove of my leadership?" in a January 31 speech televised to the nation.

Italian Racism
God was known for their radical hatred of the Italian people, wanting to detain, deport, and execute every 3rd, 2nd, and 1st generation Italian immigrant in Doggerland. While the root of this hatred is unknown, God is often seen physically assaulting Italians.

Squid Game and Italians
On October 19, 2021, God tweeted, "Squid Game is the ultimate model of what world governments should do to the Italian race and the Italian people. Except with less games and less prizes." The tweet garnered large backlash from Italian communities and other prominent groups and people. Pope Francis remarked that the tweet was, "disgusting," and, "undeserving of a former bishop."

Alleged NPD Sympathies and Viagra Incident


Some critics believe God bears hatred for the Dutch and for Calvinism due to God's support in the rights of the Doggish minorites, which some have tied to NPD sympathies. God has repeatedly rebuked these claims, once stating, "These claims are as limp and flaccid as an old man's pelvic leg without Viagra ." This remark about Viagra was seen as vulgar and rude at the time, causing traditional news outlets to criticize God.

Sworick Rights
God believes in the rights of Sworicks, which led some to call God a furry.

Suspected Vampirism
It is suspected by conspiracy theorists that God may be a vampire. This is due to their hatred of garlic and hatred of Italians, who often put garlic on their food. As well, God is also very egotistical, which is a vampiric stereotype, and smashes any mirror they come across with a sledgehammer they carry around. It is unknown where God keeps the sledgehammer, but they always have it on their person. God was also a Catholic and believed they were immortal and infallible, like a vampire.

Sudden Dissolution of the Justice Party
On February 17, 2021, God made a sudden announcement that immediately dissolved the Justice Party and moved all its resources to the Labor Worker's Party. This move was seen as brash and inconsiderate to many critics. The sudden move was also linked to corruption, as Mel, the acting prime minister and LWP member, appointed God to the Supreme Court just hours after the announcement. God denied this and claims they dissolved the party for the betterment of their cause.

Conflict of Interest
God is often accused of having a large number of conflicts of interest. This is due to their ties to Greek Orthodox and Catholic Churches, holding official roles and duties in both churches. They have also held many political positions in the past, which is viewed by critics as a sign that God would keep their political ties when they became associate justice.

Corruption
God is often accused of intense corruption, and was caught in the Zuidvis Seven corruption scandal in mid-2020, while Mayor of Rotsibaai. In this scandal, God was caught of bribery and extortion and blackmailing of their political enemies. However, they were acquited from all charges as they were assigned as the judge of the case. They were the only one of the Zuidvis Seven to get off without charges.

Personal Life
God uses he/him, she/her, and they/them pronouns, and identifies as non-binary and bisexual. God's favorite restaurant chain is Red Lobster.

God married Eli Greenwood on June 14, 2019. The two of them got married in Rotsibaai. God and Eli are also got married to Hazen Vinke on January 1, 2021. The three maintain a polyamorous relationship together. On February 18, 2021, they adopted Emerson Aldo-Greenwood Vinke.

Raised in a family practicing Catholicism, God claims Catholic teaching has influenced their political views about civil rights and equality. God identified as agnostic. They once said that they, "piss on the Catholics."

God's sister, Gloria Aldo, was killed on March 24, 2021 in the 2021 Mistlân Bombings.

God was killed on April 25, 2021 during a military coup on the National Assembly. It was reported that they tried to escape to grab either a telephone or blunt object, before being spotted by a guard, who promptly shot them dead. They were miraculously revived on April 29, 2021, apparently by the miracle of being God.

God formally retired from politics effective May 16, 2021 at 12:00:01 am.

God departed from Doggerland on June 4, 2021, saying, "God sees no hope in the future of Doggerland." God currently resides in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
