Every group of humans has done it.

A couple of them got REALLY big and spread.

Now we kill each other over which story is "true" when none of them are.

They are stories to make us feel better and used by people to control the behavior of others.  Period.

So someone on a message board in 2019 can claim THEY are right and YOU are wrong because...god.

That's it.

And let me add I'm ok with people wanting to feel good about things they don't understand.   I'm okay with people believing what they want to make them live their lives a little easier/better.  Just stop trying to force everyone else to do it YOUR way.

But let's not compare the concept of a supreme being/creator to Santa Claus. Just look around and ask yourself; How do all of this get here and be open to all answers that you come up with. Big Bang Theory requires a degree of belief. And say you do believe in the BBT, how did it happen/ What was there before it/ ect...
