Why do people create god(s)?

Because when people seek answers and can't explain it they come up with something so complicated that that complicated thing made those other complicated things but you shouldn't question that complicated thing because if you do you burn in a lake of fire for asking questions. Simple no?

Your question is really... unintelligent?
Atheists ask ---------> why did people create God?
Religious people ask ------------> why did God create people?
At the very least you could ask the same question as Nietzsche did:
Is man merely a mistake of God's? Or is God merely a mistake of man's?
Science can't explain everything either.

God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.
I always find it real funny that athiests keep bringing this topic up;people didn't create a God in their minds.Take a quick {sur vey} on how many people who go to war believe in God,and you will see that there is more God fearing soldiers than non believers in the armed services.Also they serve so you have the right to say what the topic of this thread says.Most of the leaders in history are God fearing people.
I mean,even the devil believes in God;and trembles in fear of God,but has alot of people like fools believing there is no God.Or believing that man created a god in their minds to control/have a security blanked.
lol for some reason can't write ****** without it being **

They create gods to control the society.
Science can't explain everything,
but religion can't explain anything.

The "god(s)" that people create do not necessarily reflect upon an actual equivalent being(s). It is common knowledge that people often use religion to control people and society at large, but there is a fundamental mysticism of religion that should not be ignored. I daresay it is foolish to entirely ignore religion and write it off as fiction. That would be the same as writing off science as fiction.
to explain things they dont know
