I saw previous post/discussion that addressed this, but not in the way I understand it.
We are gods. For me, this could be where rational theists and rational atheist split ways. Obviously not the only split, but perhaps a very key one.
If anyone, includes myself, has understandings (really beliefs) about what God(s) must be for them to be called gods, that IMO is going to get in the way of actual (ongoing) understanding. For intellectual discourse, it is impossible to not have some past basis for the understanding, and then a likelihood of filtering everything through that understanding. All that strikes me as rational. But it becomes less rational when it is a block to further understanding. Some theists think God spoke to humanity once, awhile ago, through one prophet who is worthy of praise and considered holy. Other theists, like myself, think God (Creator) has never stopped speaking to Creation (gods as well). And I consider it blasphemous to assert a theological position as if it is true that Creator God has stopped speaking and is having us fend for ourselves, basing all theological defenses on some holy text from hundreds, if not thousands of years ago.
I assert we are gods, Creation(s) of the Creator God.
Possible to deny our own divinity. But impossible to get rid of it, lose it. The existence of a world / universe where Creator God is nowhere to be found and separation from Creation (others) ought to indicate to rationally aware people the power of the creative mind.
But alas, some will deny it, just cause they think it can be denied and works better for them. Just like some will claim humans are not natural, or what humans make is not natural, not realizing how this would greatly impact all understandings of what is then actually natural / act(s) of nature.
