war gods
if there was a god, or gods, he, she, it or they would have to be more intelligent than me. assuming there are others more intelligent than me, and there are likely a few, a god being would likely have to be more intelligent than our combined intelligence or see us as a threat, like we see when the gods threw adam and eve out of the paradise of ignorance, either they would have to keep us ignorant and have us as fearful servants, which is hardly godlike, for even human intelligence goes beyond that or they would hope for us to become like them so they don't die of boredom having stupid creatures worship them out of fear of death.
the worship theory is mad. it's a human ego deficiency. it comes nowhere near love and adoration.
whatever you believe, try hold it in perspective. gods are not humans. gods do not require worship and war. fighting and killing are ignorant animal characteristic.
a human does not act like a worm. a god does not play games with humans.
"then why did jesus die on the cross."
if he died on the cross, which he likely didn't in 6 hours, it was because he stopped living, just like mortals tend to do. there was no original sin, there is nothing to be saved from that a god will save us from. it's our game here and we better forget about why we are because what is is what is and we gotta figure out nothing more than how to best deal with it."
"the first step."
"the tree of knowledge, then the tree of life, then evolution beyond this human stage."
