I am not sure about THAT, but one thing I am sure about is that we humans created the concept of God. To overcome our own sense of insecurity, we have imagined an omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent God and invested Him with various attributes. Organised religions have exploited our vulnerability and sense of insecurity and thrived and prospered. Of course they have succeeded in bringing solace to millions and billions of people all over the world but we have no means of finding out how far they are from the Truth. May be we should rest content with that. But our rational mind tells us Truth has to be universal and cannot assume diverse, contradictory hues. And so our search for 'God' continues. As long as we are searching, can we become the answers as well and become God heads?.

If we Humans are the gods, then, my friend, Atheists would not be wrong. Atheist dont believe in supernatural beings, and supernatural events that interfere with our lives, i.e prophecy, miracles. If we are the gods, then the atheists are right, arnt they?
By the way point, this reminds me a lot of this quote from "Vernon God Little".
'Your the God. Take responsibility. exercise your power!'

It is most difficult for the mind to comprehend the difference between a concept and an experience. Once this difference is grasped we understand we will not achieve satisfaction from reading a menu.
Perhaps we may start eating a real dish.

What ever atheists and theists are. One thing you must know is that there is only one God, God almighty who created heaven and earth and everything in them. A God who truly cares and shows you the light when you're truly in darkness. Believe in him and he'll show you the way. All the doubts and fears you have, he will take them away! And you'll experience true light and the real reason you're living here on earth.

definite, you're able to desire to place self assurance in reason. despite if it extremely is sound. in accordance with all the data needless to say presented. Do you think of your reason is completely sound? that it is not biased by potential of an (greater) academic device, media device, scientific device ruled by potential of the Godless. Is it feasible the "reason" you think of is your very own is easily something you have been spoon fed all your existence and don't know it? have you ever easily achieved a extreme study into the evidences of Christianity or is your selection to disclaim the writer of the universe come from interior of you. Do you easily believe your self that plenty to make this way of extreme judgment on your very own benefit? you're saying you're confident you haven't any longer something to make excuse for yet the place does this self assurance come from? What beginning place does it have? God is a reasoning God. while Peter pronounced "yet sanctify our lord god on your hearts: and be waiting continually to grant an answer to each guy that asketh you a reason of the wish this is in you with meekness and concern:.." "supply an answer" is easily "supply a protection" as a lawyer could in court. so which you insisting on making use of reason is properly familiar by potential of Him and is the beginning place of religion; despite if it extremely is faith in God or no longer God. it extremely is which you may "reason" out.

In the future, when humans create truly sentient machines, perhaps we would then qualify as Gods, responsible for giving rise to new life.

Then we are really evil gods. Look what a mess we're making of creation by our selfishness...

Nice question, thanks very clever.
Do you ever think about how superman on krypton didn't have any special powers, and then he came to earth and everything he can do seems amazing? I guess we wouldnt see the stuf we can do as that great as we all can do it. And what defines a god?

Then theists are correct in that there are, in fact, gods. The fact that we are them is of no consequence.
