Creation VS Evolution

Which begat which though? Was it social conventions that formed the laws, or the laws that formed the social conventions? Bear in mind that during antiquity, the social conventions you speak of weren't quite universal or even widespread. The tribes of Israel conducted themselves in a manner quite distinct from their neighbors, and even maintained a distinct outward appearance. Intentionally being so different caused them a great deal of persecution, yet time and time again they held fast to their customs, even to the point of death.

Considering the counsel that actually wrote the bible felt they had the authority to omit sections based on their own perspective, I can confidently say the bible was heavily influenced by social conventions and not hte source of those conventions.

on the flipside, why wouldn't all that owe their very existence to a divine being be singing unending praise?
We don't even have to get into the hypothetical metaphysical entities that may or may not exist though. What about your earthly progenitors who brought you into this world and raised you into what you are today? When was the last time you spoke to your mother? Why haven't you called her recently?

Take into context the size relativity. We are made by the most common materials the universe itself has to offer, I can say with certainty to suggest we are the only life in the universe is the most ridiculous, egotistical thing a person can say. Now let's just look at our cultures, how many religions do you think they are? A lot. Each division has a different strict way of worship, as strict as revolving your round to stroking yoru deity's ego, to as passive as, live your life with consideration.

Now, let's take the possibility of other life, which leads to other subcultures of worship which I can almost gurrantee. Now go to a beach dig your hands into the sand, for each grain multiply it by a million, and tell me how much significance you find from all those billions of pieces of sand telling you 'THANK YOU FOR LIFE". You start to lose appreciation of that, especially at that scale, by what? A f`ucking hour?

My parents are two people, with two children who can praise them for allowing me to exist, and they don't ask me to worship them, why would god ask the same of his byproducts which ranges in billions of zeroes. You can always fall back to "He's god", but that doesn't change or challenge my perspective.
