    It’s pretty obvious that people created every form of God we’ve conceived of, spoke of, or written about since the dawn of humanity.

    The motivations are even clear. And God isn’t a semi-hairless primate. Why would he be? What of God’s infinite duties and abilities would be made easier or more possible by being similar to a semi-hairless primate, other than to be easily thought up by a semi-hairless primate?

      the idea is that god created semi-hairless primates intentionally to look similar to him. IDK how that is supposed to fit in with our knowledge of natural history, it’s weird to me that people who understand evolution can still think “well some of this is obviously wrong, but perhaps these completely unprovable parts (that seem to rely on the other parts) are right?”
