People worshiped those kings and pharaohs because they thought they were gods.
>the problem is when the thing they're worshiping doesn't exist, and they try and tell others that it does, without any evidence
Tell a Muslim Allah doesn’t exist and they will behead you for it. Tell a Christian that God is “nature itself” and they will find it to be poetic and beautiful (the whole pantheism debate). Ask a Jew if they think God is real and they’ll say they don’t care.
Being religious isn’t about belief it’s about following a narrative. It’s meant to be entertained, not believed. Faith doesn’t require truth, ever. It is counterproductive to it. It’s a story. A metaphor.
The problem is most humans are way too stupid for their own good and WANT to believe.
