Does god exist merely for our benefit?

[JohnJames]

If so, why has he existed forever?
What was his purpose before sowing his seed on this planet?
Graham
What was the purpose of this 'angelic realm'. Have they existed forever too?

 

[Syzygy]

We created god in our image to make the world a less scary place. It's probably a great comfort to believe that there's an all-powerful being who cares about you, and who hold back the rest of the world at will.

 

[Graham]

No.

The angelic realm existed before "us".

And the concept of "before" and "forever" are very different when you exist "outside of time".

 

[Donut]

So we cAn blame someone for when things go bad
