       a few of them are sure what they are building is god, and they are competing to become the parent, teacher, and trusted advisor of the almighty.old-testament-style they imagine the tribe that exalts and exults the most capable smoter will be granted domination over the earth.

       @interfluidity Do you think that this humble perspective is realistic?  You never once mentioned "control", instead you used "be granted". From what i hear about who i think you mean, i must misinterpret what you mean a lot for that to fit.

       @interfluidity I feel Greek mythology has things to say about how things turn out for the parents of gods.
