Did the gods (god) create us?

[lucy]

Is it we need the idea of the gods to make us stronger and have faith in a world that is so cruel?

Some people need god(s) so they don't have to take responsibility for their own life. Some people need god(s) because the idea of life being utterly meaningless is more than they can bear. Some people need god(s) because they need to be comforted. Some people need god(s) for any reason.

Did the gods (god) create us or did we create the gods (god)?

We created him/her/them, and i think it was the biggest mistakes mankind has ever made.

Apart from that I couldn't care less whether someone believes in god(s), as long as they keep it to themselves. Unfortunately, too many of the faithful don't keep it to themselves and that's very likely the second biggest mistake of mankind.
