Absolutely man created god.

Man has always been a seeker. We look for answers as to how things work, how we came to be, etc. In early days, there were no answers, but an awful lot of questions. What is that thing that goes across the sky every day? Why does it rain sometimes and not other times? What caused this storm that killed my family?

So man invented god(s). Good harvest? Thank god. Bad harvest? Oh, we must have offended god. And on it went.

god(s) also provided hope for the hopeless. People lived in terrible conditions. There must be a better place. Maybe after we die? We go to join god? Made sense back then.

Now, science has pretty much destroyed the need for god to explain things. It is becoming more than obvious that god does not exist. People still cling to the idea, mainly for the "hope" part. But it's pretty much a done deal, as we overcome social inertia to accept the fact that man created god, and we have no need for that concept anymore.

I dont support it, I believe it's the other way.
Everything is created by something or someone else right??
So, where did we come from? Dont quote Darwin please, because if we would have come from a monkey, and all that evolution stuff, then explain before the monkey, before the thing before the monkey, and so on.

So, let's start with the Big Bang, which is the scientific explanation to the beggining of the universe?? right?
So, at the beggining matter and anti-matter were concentrated in a single point of energy suspended in space?? right? I mean I dont know much about all this of matter and anti-matter, but that's the idea to make my point.
So, my point is that in the only thing that scientists and religious people agree is that nothing can come from nothing; scientists have not been able yet to say who or what created that point of energy, that's one of the greatest misteries in science, an unsolved question of life.

So, if that energy created the universe, why not to believe that energy is a supreme being who created us under his image and resemblance, in the fact that we are the only living things beside Him that can think. He was that energy, he is that energy.

God is the beggining of everything and also the end. He wasnt created because he is the beggining, he's spirit, force, energy, he's everywhere. And only the ones who keep their faith on this, will see Him at the end of everything. Faith is the strongest force on Earth, even more than love, you must have faith to find love, you must have faith to see miracles, you must have faith for succeeding, everything is about faith, the ones who believe will see.

What a great question!
Yes. I do support this "argument".
We are clearly evolutionary decendants of "our" ancestors. This is scientific fact. Man has created Gods throughtout time in order to create some kind of sense and organization to his world. Gods have been used to control the masses through fear, by the powerful and elite. But Gods have also provided the masses with a senses of self and faith (order).
Is it not a mammalian characteristic to have a group "leader" of some sorts--that helps maintain order and focus of the group?
I believe in personal spirituality and beliefs. But I also believe that Gods have given humans purpose and guidelines. Gods have also been the number one cause of Wars between humans since prehistory.

~~~hulala ,,,,Logic? Study your Mythology and you will see nothing but invented gods. The Key is in Understanding The Symbolism which each god represents to it's respective believers. The "logic" is found in The Historical Record. Save yourself a lot research time and begin with The Best. The late prof. Joseph Campbell who compiled comprehensive data on the Evolution of Mankind's Belief Systems. There you will find how ALL religion came to exist, ironically via evolution, in their present forms.

Hi!

You are in this world because of your parents and one fine day you say no, I created and reproduced my mom.....will that logic be ever proven....never.

Same way If an orphan says, I created my self because I dont have parents will that be proven.... never

If I see a mad beggar on the road who has never had a hair cut and jus by seeing him If i come to the conclusion that barbers don't exist will that be proved... no..actually barbers do exist but the beggar has never known or gone to him that is why he has not had hair cut.

So just because you say man created God that can't be proved.... Scientists are still trying to search the truths and facts what God already knew and created it to the best of its kind.... Scientist created clone of rats so many years before but are still afraid to implement on human beings... God create a man in just one day.

what is the benefit that after you die you find that God actually exists and then want to believe but its too late then and God would then say....I dont know you and would puts you in hell for eternity..so fear God and trust God and start doing as per Bible.

Love you in Christ

I believe that there is a Divine essence to reality and it does want to interact with and influence us. We are the ones who gives It masks to wear. How else could something our species has not evolved to comprehend more fully find a way to communicate with us? All the gods, goddesses, and spirits existed before our rise to sentience. They are all masks worn by the Divine, but the masks did not exist untill we created them to try and understand something we are only begining to comprehend. I doubt mankind is the Creator of the Divine, all non-material beings, and realms that exist beneath our physical perceptions, but our expectations have influenced how It conducts Itself towards us. Since It tends to conform to our expectations, so that It can better interact with us, it's impossible to prove in a lab as it is so unscientific. If someone proved It existed, but constantly changes Itself to match our expectations of It, it would just be bad science. We really lack the physical and logical tools by which to concretely confirm the existance of a non-material thing that constantly changes. Our species, in the future, will better be able to comprehend It as we continue to evolve towards perceiving It to a greater degree.

Way back when man didn't have any understanding of nature, he had to come up with a reason why the sun shined, it rained, thunder, the stars, any natural force really. They thought these things controlled the earth so they started worshiping them, or appeasing them. The first signs of people worshiping something involved them worshiping forces of nature, not beings.

Eventually these forces were given persona's and names.

They became gods

God created man. God gave man His religion. Man promptly twisted God's religion to suit his own wants and desires with no regard to what was really true.

*Waves* woman here who's definitely disgusted by the thought girls persons are the only ones who've a say in abortion. I additionally think of that adult men could be in touch interior the being pregnant, and that i've got self assurance in equivalent parental rights, too. (different than contained in relation to no longer worth/abusive mum and dad - and that applies the two to the two women and adult men persons). I do think of that girls persons have a greater durable time throughout being pregnant and childbirth (i do no longer think of any rational guy might argue that), and giving delivery is "particular". yet that would not supply women persons larger rights in any section, or lead them to greater useful than the daddy. i do no longer think of it extremely is a "woman" ingredient, it extremely is a human ingredient - some human beings in basic terms substitute their suggestions/the story in accordance to what suits them suited on the time.
