  • @mcaggia (Note: I am only following the progression of the history of religions over time and endorsing or the denial of God/gods.)

  • God/the gods are created to explain what, at the time, is unexplainable by research and observation. As time went on the number of gods required to explain the unexplainable decreased because man discovered the reasons for some natural events. As man continues to discover new things and explanation to "mysterious" events, God will become less important to society overall. However God will remain necessary to explain the soul before, during, and after life.

  • Men creates God?

    Is not the inverse?

    Oh my god.
