An idea that keeps coming to mind as we continue to explore these stories of creation, is why the Gods portrayed in these stories reflects human emotions. I feel this is a very important fact to mentally note for anyone wishing to truly understand who created these stories. As many religious people would like to believe the, Gods meta-divine powers influenced humans to create these stories, in order to explain how Earth, and humans came to be. What I am attempting to point out to my readers, is that the Gods in these stories show emotions such as anger, jealousy, benevolance, contempt, and if I may be so bold, pity. What I feel makes these emotions so significant is the fact that we are lead to believe that these emotions come from the Gods. In no way do I believe any divine figure would express such human emotions, for if they truly were divine, their wisdom would prevent them from feeling, or expressing such feeling of jealousy, and anger.

What I believe this demonstrates, is that these stories were written by humans, interpreted by humans, and written in such a fashion as to scare man kind. If the Gods can get angry, jealous, and pitiful, what makes them any different than man kind? The individuals who constructed, wrote, and manipulated these tales of creation, wrote them in their own words, and by all accounts could have wrote whatever the hell they so pleased. With that being said, I find it very foolish, and wrong for any man to take these stories at face value, and accept them as fact, simply because of a divine claim of allegiance by their authors. When one truly takes the time to analyze the text as a whole, and not so much what the story is attempting to teach you, the hipocracy of the authors is illuminated. Leaving all preconceived notions, and religous opinions aside, it is blaitantly obvious that these stories are the by product of human construction, and mistake. These stories of creation were not constructed by the Gods, they were written by MAN. Whether the MEN who wrote this were influenced by the divine is completly up for debate. Your guess is as good as mine. FAITH is what YOU God fearing, and God worshipping people use as your cop out for this claim. But what is FAITH? To me, faith is blindly accepting something at face value, without any proof, or reason as to why you believe such an absurd story.

Try applying the concept of faith to any aspect of life. If I want to win my next hockey game, and I say, "hey I have faith in myself, and my teammates, so I am surely correct in stating that I will WIN", and when that game is played, and I lose, then what? Oh NO NO NO, I had FAITH why didnt I win? It's because FAITH is BULLSHIT. There is no reason to have such a vague, absurd, and out dated reasoning, and thought pattern. Its a waste of time to claim faith in anything, and a waste of time to speak on faiths behalf. Show me faith, and I'll show you a billion dollars.
