I mean I believe all divinity is mankind’s attempt to understand the unfathomable

That’s pretty much how I view religion: a mixture of a coping mechanism for death, an attempt to explain the unexplainable (things like weather, hallucinations/mental illness, space) and a political power structure.. back then people knew very little about how the world and universe work
