I also find it alarmingly convenient that in describing gods they seem to be so...well...human.
How universe was created require much faith to start take it seriously.
Like in Bible. In the beginning there was a word...
We humans to create something first need to have idea, then we use words, like "i would like to buy those materials", then we build a houseuse for our dog as example.
God only thinks about something and its was momenterally materialized.
Universe was created from Gods thoughts.
Quote: There are millions of demigods that sustain it.I think, perhaps, before we start to pin down the number of spirits involved -that there are millions of demigods (or what have yous)- we ought to first demonstrate that there are any at all. Does that seem reasonable to you?
Quote:3 main Gods.Similar situation as to the above.
Quote:Shiva - controls energy of destruction. In humans its a tendency for selfdestruction try pleasure and violence.Yeah I know these three, I'm aware that stories are told - what I'm wondering is what compelled you to assign any measure of truth to those few attributes listed. For example, how do you know that that attributes listed for Shiva (and again - amusingly, what that relates to in humans - to you) aren't - more accurately, the attributes of Vishnu, for example?
Brahma - controls energy of passion - in humans its tendency for progress.
Vishnu - energy of goodness. In people its a tendemcy for altruism, humanism, love - giving and forgiving.
