I know who God is, so who are all these other fakers? Could they be demons hired by satan to derail man? Could they be imagined? Could they be created by a human being?

I am not trying to say my way is the only way. There is a point to the ?, it implies doubt and a want for understanding. I want to know what others think because I have so many ideas that I don't know what to think at times.

When I said "fakers" I mean gods other than the Christian God. Maybe "fakers" was the wrong word.

There are many earthly gods. pagans had 360 gods. itself, before Islam even existed. You had Greek gods..blah blah bllah.....
There is only ONE GOD. The LIVING GOD. JEHOVA
GOD JEHOVA IS THE ONLY LIVING GOD THERE IS.
CHRISTIANS WORSHIP A LIVE GOD. NOT A DEAD ONE.
A LOT OF PEOPLE WORSHIP A DEAD GOD, HOW MUCH CAN A DEAD GOD DO? THEY WILL BE JUST LIKE THEY'RE GOD..DEAD.
Jesus Christ is alive today. He conquered death in the grave for us.
Thats Great huh?? hahhaah.
God Bless You. Have a nice week.

There are so many different gods because there are so many different cultures across this great big earth and when their civilizations each began, it was just them. They had to figure things out for themselves - and either they did or god sent them there own personal story, told through one of their own people. A story adapted to their environment (which could explain why some religions have laws that sound like health regulations) and their existing nature. Certainly folks in the north would never be able to get behind a sun god like those around the equator, but a viking god, they could really understand and get behind.
The essence of each story has a similar message of love and a positive answer for death - again most suited to each individual culture. In fact, I think the similarities far out weigh the differences. Fascinating really.

When the Greeks invented their gods, they were explaining the phenomena they perceived, in terms of mythology. Native Americans: the same. The Norse: same thing.
Why would you suggest these were invented by satan? Have some respect for the people of this world, who have a right to interpret their experiences as they see fit.
Your way is not the only way.

Maybe the Christian God is the "faker", as you delicately put it.

Maybe, and this is just my own thought, there truly is only ONE Deity. Its just that because so many people have so many different ideas about what Deity is like it makes it LOOK like there are a lot of different "Gods". Maybe they're all just describing the Thing differently because they're looking at It differently. ~ Peace & Blessings ~

there are fake religions and fake gods b/c satan is alive in the world today and he hates God...so what he does is inflict on people's minds that Christianity is a bunch of crap and doesn't make sense. it's too easy to be a Christian. just ask God into your heart? pff. right. that's the way they think. so they make up their own philosophies their own religions. it's sad isn't it? b/c there truly only is ONE God.

that is the freedom of knowledge and choice my dear. you should learn for yourself what is best for you to follow but make sure you understand it and know what it is you are believing in. people are allowed different religions it is a freedom. and i am not sure who you are calling fakers if you could clarify that for me please?

One garden, many flowers, one God, many faiths. They are all the same God, the only fight is about their prophets on earth
