I like FaithNoMore's response.. The best state for man to be in .. is a nondelusionary state.. To the end that society moving to help one another move out of delusion is "best"... and educate them out of it...
Let's consider that the "Gods" who prescribed moral behavior through scripture were unsuccessful.. It would then follow that such a prescription for improving human behavior does not work...
The method of taking important principles giving them to one man during a theophany in a remote village.. then hoping that millions of people around the world somehow come in contact with this "news" while breaking barriers of culture and language in order to get to the "wisdom" in the particular book AFTER translation and multiple re-interpretations, is a flawed, poor, unsuccessful and silly way to infuse moral edicts into the psyche of man..
The GODS were unsuccessful... It didn't work...
