Aristotle's idea of God

If, then, God is always in that good state in which we sometimes are, this compels our wonder; and if in a better this compels it yet more. And God is in a better state. And life also belongs to God; for the actuality of thought is life, and God is that actuality; and God's self-dependent actuality is life most good and eternal. We say therefore that God is a living being, eternal, most good, so that life and duration continuous and eternal belong to God; for this is God.
(bk xii, 7)
 
I wonder what God thinks about His creations killing each other.
Does he laugh and roll on the ground in merriment?
Does he scratch his head and wonder how he fucked it all up?

Maybe there are more than one God and each have Teams?
Maybe they bet on which Team kills more of the other Team?

Well, Aristotle does not think God is a Creator.
