the reason for the existence of a deity has nothing to do with our moral code
but everything to do with trying to explain of whence we came and of where we are going
that is why almost all creation myths try to explain the reason of our existence and not
the reason why we do what we do - and this also explains why our sense of morality is relative
in a lot of situations what we do within our community is very different from what we do to those not in our communities
it might be ok to steal murder and plunder the other, where it would not at all be acceptable within those we call our kin.
this is why i believe the our sense of morality is an evolutionary trait
we (luckily) figured out early on that our continued existence depends on our obligations toward each other
and this has ensured the survival of ours species as we know it
it also explains why very many different cultures have very many different versions of where we go when we die
and how we segregate those we want to be with us in the after life from those we'd hate to share our afterlife with
xtianity does this very well
but its all a primitive way of explaining the things we grapple with that we do not know
but as we continue to push the boundaries and limitations of our knowledge,
we come to realize that we do not need to depend on these very early and nonsensical thoughts/beliefs
we can do better
and thank god for science because it allows us to do that.

i myself would never want to be god,or even like god.Because god got all these human beings on this planet and i most certainly would not want to be responsible for them, or even have the disgrace that i made them.
