Man Created God
God did not create man, man created god.
Every religion is created by man, but all claim some sort of divine inspiration or transmission, through a human. I could not think of a religion that was directly transmitted by a divine non-human dude in the sky to all humanity.
If man cease to worship a certain god then that god no longer exists. There are a bunch of dead religions that had very real gods when they were active.
At the end of the day, all religions pretty much teach a simple moral constant but one that leaves a lot of room for interpretation. Do good, refrain from doing harm.
Edit:
From a couple of posts down, putting it on top to make things clear...
"Forgot to add that this is a hypothesis that i cooked up when I was 12 and looking at various religions. So take it with a grain of salt."
Please do not take this as an attack on your religious belief, it is not. It is a point for discussion and one that I find intellectually stimulating.
