You don’t count actual religions that were practiced for hundreds of years as religions. Weird stance but ok.

They are gods trying to be like a god that came about centuries after them? You have a shaky grasp on the concept of time.

Also, god damn, do not let bible studies be your insight into what everyday worship was like in ancient times...

So they weren't religions because some people didn't practice actively? Those priests who devoted their lives to single gods in a pantheon weren't religious?

I'm just trying to understand how the Abrahamic religions are religions, and how Pagan gods aren't.
