Wtf? A god (lowercase, common noun) is usually defined, roughly, as a supernatural entity, often an object of worship, who interacts with the world in various ways. On the other hand, God (uppercase, proper noun) is a specific god (lowercase, common noun)- the god of Christianity. He is distinguished from other gods, like YHWH (of Judaism), Allah (Islam), or any number of other gods by the sacred documents which author that god-concept (i.e. of God)- i.e. the Bible, in particular the New Testament.
Thus, God is whatever object satisfies the Biblical description of God. (there is no such object, so God does not exist)
So by definition, we cannot be God, nor can we be gods. We can be as gods, as in be like gods in certain ways- by creating (art), by excelling in various ways, or what have you, but we are not literally gods. Gods do not exist, except as works of the human imagination.
WOW! a real response thank you, but you are wrong about the definition when you look it up the top 3 or 4 definitions on almost every link describes a deity of unlimited mind or power. You're accurate about god satisfying whatever people think or make of it though that's true
Also sorry but when i said we are god i should really change that it isn't coherent with what my message is. Now the truth is something cannot come from nothing it is a paradox and like most paradoxes it is a constant loop leading right back to where it started. Now the real answer is who built the universe? because the truth is energy cannot be created nor destroyed but simply change form. Also we are gods in our own sense (a very very small one) we are the masters of many animals and technology and we are the gods of these primitive technologies and life forms. one of the biggest ideas of god is that he is a powerful ruler and i gotta say we're pretty powerful over cows cars and other things not much chance of them revolting anytime soon. haha
