God is an artifact of early man's attempt to understand the world around him. Essentially God is a mistake in understanding and that is all.

Belief in gods is a social practice. The perception of a god is the result of a kind of group hypnosis. Who knows how social practices come into being or why, but once established they are self perpetuating.
