Every bit of human body, the word "human" itself, is nothing more but a group of functions existing to serve: thus we, are nothing but the same biological organism that is surviving -ironically- via self inflicted services, which are given to the body since birth.
We cannot even comprehend the idea of independence: everything to us -by default- is defined with the same image -that is us-: a client being served; a cause and effect.
If worship is -in its core- a service, then how is an atheist considered to be a "Godless" human being?
Isn't it more accurate to describe the person's God, as him/herself, his/her nation, his/her government?
If somebody spent all of their lives "worshiping" themselves and claiming to be "atheists", wouldn't that tell us that there are no true atheists?
Consider whatever holy, and spend them years building it up obsessively; and here you go: that's your God.
Humans are made to worship. Made to serve.
Atheism might be defined more accurately with it being the lack of belief in a certain "God(s)", but not all Gods. Every person has a God after all. Nobody is Godless.
NO we were no made to worship, nor are we some sort of product like a factory makes.
Our species began in an age of scientific ignorance, so back then everything scared the crap out of us because we didn't know the reality of what was going on, so we gap filled by projecting our human qualities on things like weather events, earthquakes, volcanos, animals. Because we stupidly thought there must be some sort of human like thing controlling it or the event or thing or animal itself had magic powers to give us our fortunes or punish us. The first deities/gods were earth like and animal like and weather like, but the more we became organized and the more complex our written language became, our species started giving our gods more human like features. Monotheism came way late in religious history, it simply was an attempt to streamline religion.
The same gap filling that causes humans to make up gods, is the same thing that will cause us to walk into a clean glass door, our brains gap fill we evolved with notoriously flawed perceptions of reality.
