God... Truth or fiction?

Associating a deity as the sole source of love is, to say the least, short-sighted. Love exists even without God – love for oneself, for one's children, for parents, and even love for money ultimately doesn't depend on whether the loving person is religious or not.
I wouldn't yet classify myself as either a believer or an atheist because, to put it simply, I believe not in a deity as such, but in human potential, because all progress, everything that is done directly or indirectly, is done by people, not by someone else. I don't believe that everything is predetermined, in fate – I simply believe in the confluence of circumstances, and all so-called miracles are nothing more than coincidences, which, as a rule, confirm the theory of probability. The same applies to luck; it's not the goddess Fortuna who kissed you, but you simply got lucky, you simply "got lucky." This time it was you, next time it will be someone else. A person creates their own life, charts their own course, and saying that I am not destined to become a great/smart/famous/successful person is simply an example of shirking responsibility for one's own life, although I don't deny that it's probably easier to live that way.
And in conclusion: I recently saw in the news that one Pope is going to be canonized for healing a countess from some disease. Does anyone actually believe this? I don't. I just laughed at the fact that the whole world has gone mad. Or a more prosaic example: now, in many cities, they are building many churches (I will say in advance that this is a good thing), and in our city, the same thing is happening, but one case is simply outrageous – they either canonized someone or gave a rank to a person (most likely) for the fact that he financed the replacement of the fence around the church.
But there is, in my opinion, no love for money as such. There is greed and mania (and this applies not only to paper with images of cities or presidents). Man himself invented this thing – money – and elevated it to the status of God. This, in your opinion, is not love, but self-deception, invented by man. Yes, of course, God, and any kind of love, are not needed in this case if there are false gods, such as the "god of money," which does us great "good." By the way, do you know why a person is higher than other organisms on planet Earth? Because he can not only be born, fight for survival, reproduce, and die, but also because he can, unlike everyone else, believe, learn about the world as a whole, reason, and develop (and each one individually). IMHO. And if everyone lived without God, without love, then everyone would be just like animals or even plants, born, reproduce, and die according to a predetermined scenario, bringing neither benefit nor harm, nor progress as such. ;) As for fate, it changes in everyone's life more than 40 million times, even every moment, depending on the decision you make. But still, the paths of its development are predetermined; we think that we are the masters of our own destiny. :) IMHO.
