Default Re: God, indeed exists!

However, a distinguished common characteristic among all representations of God, it's his ( or their ) immortality and their superhuman abilities, a clear evidence that they represent an ideal generalized among all cultures of human supremacy
This would merely be a hope/dream of the perfect person, many people like to dream about having superpowers, the next best thing is someone with superpowers working for you

Quote:
So, I think for most cultures, God have represented their culture and their ideals for a better society in the future, all this inherited in a single or sometimes in multiple characters
If the concept of god is peoples hopes and dreams for themselves and their society, along with their personal vision of what a superior human being would be like, then it still has no need to be supernatural, everyone has hopes and dreams, but there is still nothing 'godlike' about it.
