Why was God invented?

Spirit Exists, like Energy.  God is Spirit and not an "invented" entity.  When ancient humankind acknowledged that Spirit exists is unknown, as far as an accurate date would be concerned.  Spirit is Energy and God is Spirit.

So some people (like a certain nutjob with 100 screen names) would have something to be self righteous, hypocritical and sanctimonious about.

So he could create nuts like you.

You will find out on judgement day God is, as He sends your soul to hell.

So this time the pussyfart demon called God is really going to do something and he's going to send my soul (a function of the brain that obviously dies when my brain dies) to hell according to a moron retard? LOL.

Man, that is dumb.

Because people simply could not conceive of a naturally operating world.
They didn't know where the sun went at night. They didn't know why the earth shook, or from where the rain came, and why it didn't some times.
They didn't understand why some people got sick and died and others didn't.
And the fraise "shit happens" is still beyond the ability of some people to comprehend.

To indoctrinate and create/perpetuate a belief system, to allow a minority to exert huge power and control over tribes, societies and countries.

Assuming the premise is correct, why didn't any other creatures invent God ?
