Is GOD Man-made?
Last Updated: Aug 23, 2013
God is necessary being, and we are contingent beings, so it’s not even possible that man could’ve made God. Nothing that is necessary can be made, and it certainly couldn’t be made before the maker even came to exist. Even if God wasn’t a necessary being, man lacks the technology to make a God.
discovering God
The question “Is God man-made” is defiantly an eye opening question. In some religions the answer is yes, god is a man made creature to help people who live in fear of the world and need an explanation. For some god is a worldly type creature that is beyond explanation and is not man-made.
I honestly don’t think there will ever be an easy answer to this question. There are some who will always believe that god is man-made and something for people who live their lives in fear. Some believe that this entire world is god made and that god is the all mighty power that is more than any of us.
It depends whether God is man-made, because in Christian’s point of view God is not a man made. In Bible it was told that God came down to Earth to help other people, but in non believer’s point of view they will think that God is man-made, because God was a son of Mary and Joseph so God was a man made creature.
Practically speaking, as far as we know, yes, God is merely made-up. There is no real proof that God truly exists. He is just like the thousands of other gods that people believe in – who; by the way, don’t believe in the existence of ‘God’ but of theirs only. Why? Because they were taught that their own god was the only real god. There could be a god but there is no evidence of ‘God’. God is just something that the man created to explain how everything begun. Because the we count find an possible explanation for the what happened before us. Not saying that god doesn’t exist, i mean the world has to come from somewhere, but the expression god, the one that created everything is totally man made.
As we have learned and expanded out knowledge we have moulded God to fit our needs. The ancient Greeks and Romans thought gods pulled the sun across the sky; we found out this was due to the earth orbiting around the sun and no longer have those gods. If god were not manmade we would not see so many different ones.

GOD is a human belief which possess the ultimate power responsible for all the natural things which occur.its a self belief of every individual that there is an existence of such a supernatural power which is responsible for the do’s and don’t in every individual life.More over before a start to any work every one at least prays GOD for the success of his/her work.
God is manifestation of Man’s thinking..In order to worship,respect someone humans created the concept of God….
god is an idea… god is a belief… whenever we lose our path in the life journey… we knee down in front of the god… we believe he will show us the proper path….actually thinking about the god increases our concentration power… it boosts our confidence…
there are many controversies on the topic that is god man made???? it may not be also… the existence of anything can be proved if it is scientifically driven out…. science is progressing… but it may also be true that still now science has not the capability to prove the existence of the god….
It is a critical question whether God is man made or not. Who is God? According to me God is a symbol of ultimate power, ultimate knowledge and ultimate being. God is in a way man made. Man made God as a representation of power and knowledge. When man saw everything around him he wondered who created them all. That is when man created God. Man made God his ultimate creator, the creator of the universe. Whether God really exists or not that certainly has not been proven scientifically but yes He exists for us, within us as a symbol of faith and power.
No, But what we think god as is really man made.
GOD is basically is a natural power that governs us and that strengthens us, But i dont believe god as wearing heavy jewellery and costumes.
