Theistic Inclinations

[Foxaèr]

These responses are to the description of God being presented by believers. If God is real and shows up, I rather think he won't be as bad as many of his fans make him out to be.

Theists imagine their god as a monster because that is precisely what they want in a leader. The primitive mindset was unimaginative and incapable of perceiving a deity other than what other cultures had already created. The theistic mind, unfortunately, never properly evolved from the goat-herder way of thinking, which was precisely why Hitler and Trump rose to power.

Today, after we have thrown kings and queens off their thrones and given people the illusion of power through the process of democracy, most of us can somewhat imagine creating more reasonable ideals for the unknown. The process of leaving primitive ways of thinking in the past is a slow one, and hopefully the theistic way of thinking will become the minority in the world before it is too late to save us all and ensure a better future for generations to come.
