Man has been inventing religions and gods for thousands of years, many of which have lasted thousands of years but eventually died out : sun worship, moon worship, ocean worship, star worship, Egyptian religion, Inca religion, Aztec religion, Maya religion, Native American religion, Greek religion, Roman religion, Aboriginal religion, African tribal religions, mono theistic religions, Maori religion etc etc.
See this link to see a selection of some of the gods that have been created.

Why are the current crop of manmade gods any different.
Their main advantage seems to be that improved worldwide centuries over the centuries have enabled them to spread far and wide.
But will this be enough to save them from extinction like all the other religions that have been and gone ?

hey, you just answered your own question, remember balaam? a god,no match for my GOD, the word is the only thing that will last, all else is vanity -of no good and will be destroyed]
everything that is not of GOD is vanity. when we put all the vanities out of our lives and dwell upon the lord GOD, then we can say we are on the right road to heaven -if we faint not, backslide by taking off the whole armor of GOD a little at a time, so put on the full armor so that the firey darts of satan can not penetrate. finally, just take your thoughts off the little gods and put them on the real GOD and live with peace and joy of the lords love and blessings to you my friend .ps- satan is already doomed,he is going everyplace seeking whom he might devour, so if we seek GOD with all we have the holy spirit will come in and give us power to defeat these little gods. amen

Good question, and in case you didn't know, you just made a "Chrisitan" point. Why is it that Jesus, claimed by non believers to be "just a man" is still talked about today? Why is the God of a tribe so small still around? Man did not invent God, God made man. The Truth never dies, nor does it leave.

People have learned a lot from previous Gods, and have invented new, vague religions which can be interpreted in so many ways as to make disproving them much more difficult. It'll happen, though.

Very fair question and, for me, not soon enough BUT the muslims will be about six hundred years behind us, if at all. Much as they are right now.

in case you seem in any respect the religions you defined, all of them taught first- idol or creation worship. The created issues worshiping the created issues. guy worships sunlight, guy worships rivers, guy worships fashions of different men, and so on. 2nd- all the religions you referred to have been INCONSISTENT during their history. They gods of the Greeks and Romans, for occasion, have replaced their behaviors during time. First Zeus is propose and savage, later he's type and compassionate on guy. third- a lot of those religions are based on guy. As you pronounced, all of them died out whilst their civilizations died out. by using fact the persons 'decayed,' the gods decayed and have been no longer worshiped. fourth- like those religions, lots of the religions of on the instant are created issues. Buddah grew to become right into a guy, a created element. nevertheless they say they do no longer worship him, it somewhat is proved fake by potential of all the statues that are mandatory of their properties and temples, and so on. The supposedly have faith their is barely 'nature.' Nature=created element. Islam's god, Allah, i don't comprehend lots approximately, yet i comprehend he began to be worshiped whilst Mohammed began preaching approximately him. See, it somewhat is dependance on people. 5th- regardless of the shown fact that, Christianity would not fall under any of those categories. God has been worshiped continuously by using fact the start of time. he's no longer created, unlike another faith you reported. He would not matter on guy. guy, (the Jews interior the previous testomony) fell away returned and returned for long classes of time, yet God did no longer disapear along with his followers. God grew to become into being worshiped long previously Jesus got here to earth, unlike Islam. Islam is likewise based on the Bible; while the Bible has in no way been somewhat proved thoroughly fake. for this reason, Christianity would not fall under those categories. by using fact of this, even nevertheless atheists and others do no longer nicely known his being, God will in no way 'disapear' like a lot of those different religions will. 6th- i'm hoping this facilitates tutor that no count what guy does, God would not fall away or end latest. God bless. The religions would descend of their prominence, yet God/Jesus will in no way disapear. enable the Rocks Cry Out.
