How human beings created God

The human being has the need tounderstand and explain the world. Since human groups have replaced the nomadic way of life with a sedentary lifestyle, established in cities, religions have grown in importance as asource of answers to the world around us.The ancient religions were tribal, contained several gods and went through syncretism with the religions of other tribes and states. Of the tribal gods one has become the most influential today,YHWH, or simply God, as most people know. YHWH has left throughout history to be a tribal god in a polytheistic society, to be the unique God of Jewish / Christian monotheism, creator of heaven and earth. In order to become a single god it was necessary to incorporate the characteristics of various gods and customs of other religions. In,How human beings created God, we will go through great Indo-European religions, analyzing their beliefs and how over the years syncretism between religions has shaped beliefs that we have until today and we believe to be of unique origin. Understanding the origin and influence of religions is fundamental in building a more empathic, less fanatical and more just society. While reading, we need to reflect: Should religion still be a way to use to explain the phenomena that we do not know? What is the role of religions today? What principles of ancient religions remain in the atom era?
