You make a good point. I had this professor who once told me that religion was created because of human's aversion to death and we all want to cling on to a hope of a better future. It does make sense.
Though right now I am still confused as to how I label my faith because I don't usually talk about it. But I'm raised by atheists sometimes agnostics parents so I guess I had somehow adopted their beliefs or nonbeliefs of a diety.
Seeing your article makes me lean towards the idea that humans created this God. It's very intriguing.
