I asked and was ignored. What makes you think you're better than ME???

Our species is far older than the written language. Our species first bad guesses ended up being earthy gods like volcano and sun gods. On top of that our planet is 4 billion years old to which we've only been around a mere fraction of that time. On top of the universe being 13.8 billion years old. On top of our galaxy having hundreds of billions of suns, on top of our universe having nearly 200 billion galaxies in it.
So call your "God" whatever you want and define it however you want, seems a ton of waste to me if humans are allegedly the center of all this.
Maybe YOU need to consider there has never been such a critter and that "God" is merely a comic book reflection of human's qualities in their desire for a fictional forever.
Tell me why you don't accept the ocean God Poseidon as the gap answer to explain the cause of hurricanes? Tell me why you don't accept Thor as a gap answer to explain the cause of lightening?
Maybe you should consider that humans are finite and merely a temporary blip riding in giant weather pattern.
I am afraid that you have no time to read attentively all what I write on this thread.
I try discovering things (in any field that could be related to my nature) with the hope to have a better life.
In reality, knowing how to have a better life is a relative matter because it depends on one's nature in the first place. I mean what is good for someone may or may not be so to others. But rare persons, even on these days, can perceive clearly this 'Relativity' because it is much easier for them to believe in the 'Absolute'.
Anyway, it is not a crime if someone thinks that all humans should have the same nature (structure) of his. But, in this case, this person has no choice but seeing anyone who doesn't have his same main priorities in life as having illusions at best.
Should I repeat that, along history, the various religions then politics were created by men for the same main purpose?
So talking about ruling gods (religions) or human Elite (politics) sounds much like the same to me.
By the way, do you think a free independent person could exist in this world?
If you don't, you, unlike I, are used to be a follower of a certain ruling system (obviously not a religious one since you are not a formal theist).
I do have time, but how much of an naked assertion apology does one have to read before you know it is still ultimately a naked assertion?
Got a peer reviewed journal, formula? No, then all you have is a personal like. So do Muslims and Jews and Hindus and Buddhists, get in line take a number.
