I understand that from your point of view heywood, you are trying to do people a favour
At least, I hope that's how you view it.
But to me, I don't see what difference it makes. It's a big enough leap to say there is a creator; to then try and link it to ancient story books is just utterly absurd I'm afraid. Sure it "could" be anything, and that's as far as you can get while confined to this reality. The only way we could learn about it is messages directly from the creator, and we have no way of distinguishing them from anything else. Certainly nothing so far has even come close.
The creator has worked really hard to make everything look like an un-designed mess.
