I think Callisto, Alcmene, Europa, Leda, and Danae would disagree with you. Zeus got all up and personal on them.

From everything you've said here it really seems like you had some huge preconceptions yourself.

Only in Christianity does the God of all creation seek a relationship with His followers. The rest are simply rewards based after life or even next life religions.
What is heaven then if not the ultimate reward for being a good little sheep? Bribing people with a massive reward or threatening them with eternal punishment seems like the absolute worst way to strike up a conversation. "Hey babe, come have a drink and chat with me or I'll torture you forever." Worst. Pick-up line. Ever.

The only difference between belief in God and belief in Santa Claus is that eventually people stop telling you Santa Claus is real.
