God is a figment of the imaginations of rulers. He's been talking to our "better" for millennium. They come and tell us all the time what he wants us to do. Which coincidently happens to benefit them.
Read the Old Testament to see who they say this guy God is. He had no problem drowning every living being, except two of every animal and Noah's family. Because, according to our betters, we weren't doing it right.
Then look at Sodom and Gomorrah. He didn't like what they were doing so decided to obliterate the whole city, again including the animals.
Then there were the Jews leaving Israel, he had no problem with the plagues and even the deaths of the eldest male child and then drowned the Egyptian Army.
When the Israelites decided to settle in Canaan he had no problem telling them to kill all the Cannites, again the animals got killed (what is it he has against the animals? It's not like they did anyone any harm.)
All the above have been proved to be bullshit lies. But very handy if you want to scare the living daylights out of ignorant people.
And it doesn't end in pre history. The rapture is a relative new thing dreamed up when some girl had a vision and the local priest decided to make something of it. And the last Pope who happens to be on his way to being a Saint. Told people not to use condom as they were no protection against s AIDS. Which lots of ignorant people did and they're now in Heaven. Or just dead.
And don't start me on Muslims.
