Fantasies about how you are superior because you have an imaginary friend is evil.
Thinking that you have to educate people about the fantasies that you have about a god that doesn't exist and entities that don't exist is evil, disrespectful, rude and immature.
If your so-called god can create galaxies with a thought, then god has no need of humans to speak for it. It has no need of holy books. Yes, it can communicate without your help.
So, clearly, you don't even believe all of this crap you're spewing, because you seem to think the all-powerful all-knowing god needs YOUR help. What egotism. What narcissism.
Pure evil.
Do you not see that you are defining good and evil by your desires and that it proves we need guidance from a source that is well aware of who we are and what truly is good and evil?
And that though this guidance is inside all of us, we need outward manifestation, a book from God clarifying and further a Messenger who manifests the true interpretation, and guardians that succeed him to implement the true teachings and remind people of the very path they were called to in the first place?
The book is a MacGuffin.
In your narrative, this MacGuffin isn't even original. Others had the original idea of a holy book. Others had the original idea of a messenger who manifests true interpretation, J.C., Others had the guardians that succeed him, the apostles.
Face it, your religion is a copycat...
A man-made copycat.
Oh, and that book you say is from god... it is not. It is from man. It is man-made.
Like all religions, yours too is man-made.
God is made to the image of man, with all the flaws of humanity and all the desires of humanity bundled into one very fuzzily defined entity.
