Are y'all okay? I just used a Sanskrit term of the sun. As a personage he is Suryadev. Now go thank him for the light.

It is uneccesary imo to split the Sun into the Sun and the Sun god, because the Sun is the one and only foundation of the natural world.
The terms you use are unnecessarily splitting hairs imo.
The Sun isn't a he or a she, it is the Sun and I am grateful for it every day.
The Sun provide the light to feed our plants, to spur the climate cycles and to disrupt our DNA to form cancer. The Sun provides all that we need, for better and worse.
The Sun does not require or ask for anything, it does not need praise or devotion. It merely receives my appreciation for all it does.
I acknowledge the Sun, and am grateful for it, but I do not worship it.
-------------------- I am whatever Darwin needs me to be.

That something needs praise or devotion for itself is not correct in terms of worship, which is in principle acknowledging and receiving like you are doing. Or service. If you could serve the sun, would you? I think appreciation is service, for one. Maybe the sun does need service, as appreciation is spreading its benefit in terms of being aware of it which is a thing of awe, the source of life in this system.

Hell fuck no, I ain't no simp for the Sun, and the Sun doesn't need service either.
It don't need shit, it just do what it do and I'm grateful for it.
Serve the Sun? That's batshit man.

people have an internalized prejudicial concepts about G-d being a deity, that they find unrelatable!

No doubt, fucking hypocrits if you ask me. In hell though everyone will lose their faith in anything. I like anne rice's view on the devil though. It makes more sense than anything I've read else where. Still I don't believe. A view is if there where it wasn't suppose to be gossiped about.

Another flood for the masses.
Anyway, isn't the story of Jesus about a bastard who's mum took a creampie from some other lad then lied about a virgin birth to cover up and she was too deep in to turn back?
That's how I see it nowadays.

i'd say most people back then were super gullible, but I don't think we are much better overall nowadays

Jim Jones & Ron Hubbard & Bonnie Nettles and Marshall Applewhite all had the right idea, either fleece the suckers, get them to commit suicide, or murder them.
Just getting others to subscribe to a belief system, or pet theory pales by comparison, to exercising the true joy of feeling one has great power and insight over vast numbers of other half awake primates.
Then again lots of folks settle for trying to force their kids to play football, take over the family business, or marry someone they approve of. Whatever little power you can muster always improves everything.
