What are the gods that humans worship?

[Ray1990]

Not sure if this metaphysics or paranormal.
I did a thread like this at ATS a decade or so ago.
Thought it would be a good discussion here.

What are the gods that people really worshipped throughout human history?

Just imagination?   Demons getting attention?   Tulpa thought forms created by our worship energy?  Space aliens?   A combination of all that?   Something else?

I think that many are demons that are getting energy (their food) and attention from humans.   They were created as good by 'The God' and turned evil.   But I also do think that MAYBE  our energy from worship and our intent creates tulpa thought forms that are sentient and independent.   I don't  know if they just live briefly, as long as the worship energy lasts, or if they are created and live on for some time.   I have no proof of this, but it's a thought running through my head.  And yes, I know that goes against Christian theology.

Something I've considered recently is that it's all just a form of collective consciousness.

It's possible we created gods and everything else we apply celestial or paranormal activity to but there's clearly a sense that these things are real, at least to some anyway.

Like watching a highly choreographed dance with absolutely no knowledge of dancing and thinking "how in the hell do they do that?!" Well, they developed it...

It's just how we manifest thought and emotions.

How would a collective consciousness manifest within individuals? Think about it, we're basically singularities and modern society would say that any outside link is highly abnormal and must be treated. I can't necessarily disagree with that either because aberrant thoughts and emotions are going to wreck havoc onto an individual. It's going to manifest as paranormal. Depending on the nature of thought it might even manifest as divine.

It might be dismissive of me to say it's all just stuff our species (and others?) developed in the noosphere but I'd personally find it magical. It means it's all possible and everything we've achieved so far whether it be physical, mental, emotional, spiritual etc etc is literally down to us. It's why old pantheons and faith systems can almost make sense to me because the things they created are beautifully accessible via perceptive development.

As if the reflection of 1000's before created the image of you. Some might find such sentiments lonely... Yet I find cruelty in the whole "not in my image" approach since we're all the same and dancing the same dance.

With two left feet we'll just fly like dodos wouldn't you think?
