The Ancient Greek concept of gods don’t align 1 to 1 with the Abrahamic concept of god, etc.
Each faith has a different concept of god, omnipotence, and what that means. It’s also changed over time. For example, the Romans saw wealth and prosperity as signs of piousness, as one would have to be blessed by the gods to possess so much. Christianity (ostensibly) argues the opposite.
Though, in short, god(s) demonstrates human traits because they’re abstractions from humans, the creatures that created them for various reasons throughout history and modernity. To get specific answers about each faith, you’d be better off speaking to spiritual leaders of those faiths.
You mind of explaining a little bit on the first sentence on metaphysical beliefs and how I am mixing them? Not looking for a fight just want more knowledge much love
some religions think of god(s) as sharing human aspects like you suggested with sex. Other religions consider their god(s) to be different from humans and therefor may not share all or any of our emotions/needs/wants.
You’re sort of mixing metaphysical beliefs here.
