Creating a god

[Mr. Friscus]

Creating a God is not an easy task, but since the world has about 4,200 religions, it's been done many, many times. The problem is creating a good one, a popular one, one that seems to give members something to believe in. You got to do your research, learn all you can about the other religions that are already out there. Use the good parts of the old ones ( religious syncretism ) and make it work for you. The narrative you create how to be believable, adding supernatural touches is fine because it's expected. Then you have to put the safeguards in, breaking membership ( exclusivity system )comes with penalties authorized by the god himself, of course it's usually always a guy. All this in the name of God. Please add to the conversation. Thanks, Stan.

If you want to create a god, why don't you go ahead and do it.

Clarification / correction:
humans don't "create" god, either lower case, or especially upper case.
Humans create religions.

Let us please not conflate the two. They are surely not the same.

Thanks, Stan.
