Gods...as in a pantheon. You are correct.

There is not a monotheistic God, but a plural of gods and demigods.

Yes, how did they come into fruition?

The Egyptian pharaohs were dieties. Didn't they faster bare worship by naming themselves various virtues becoming temples? Until monotheism replaced competing temples that were otherwise guilds? A solider wasn't a builder, a maiden wasn't a crone. Were Summerians, also dieties? Caesar Emperor but didn't he name himself after Mars. Like Greek mortals were granted status with the gods, birthed by gods, hereculus, achilles, theseus. Etc etc.

So with the Greeks writing our modern bible, a star shone when the king of kings was born, Jesus, having royal blood, according to Herod, trying to kill any competing claim. Replaced by the Holy Roman Emperor. Then the popery.

Meanwhile in Eastern religion you had the God Kings scared Emperors. Angkor Wat, the Golden City. Similar in MesoAmerica. Of course they also worshipped planets, stars, and animals. But were they named after those things, or did they name them?

What was God in this 4chan thread. If it was like the pantheon, it was a place often reached by mortals. Greeks of course wrote our modern Bible.

Summerians named our planets.

In any event. There was also acts of the divine but these were otherwise nature's wrath. Where the gods were angry, because a volcano erupted, or there was an Earthquake, where didn't Japanese have a god causing it, in the form of a giant catfish, they possibly even sacrificed to it. Like Minoans to the bull, minotaur. Of course the Greeks might have called this the Kraken, sent by posiedon. Etc.

Who knows who cares? But I doubt it was that thread's claims.

Although I am still trying to wrap my around evolution, because it's mostly bullshit.
