The Party thinks they are God. Winston believes that the Party is an omnipotent being that exists to destroy the community. Orwell places The Party on a level that the reader is able to relate to the Party as God. There are many similarities between the two. Both yearn for their followers to accept their beliefs and breathe them with their every breath. Both will do everything in their power to make sure their platform is well known. Both are everywhere and can not be avoided. However, the Party can punish one for the acts. God simply welcomes those back with open arms and rejoices with their return. Unlike the Party, where the people are already dead.
