Should we worship our parents for the same reason? I think something that creates something intelligent has a tremendous responsibility to the createe, no right to be obeyed or worshipped. They didn't ask to be created, but you selfishly did it anyway, so it's your problem to deal with, not theirs.

Interesting take.

I was of course thinking along the lines of how religion is used to explain the existence of humanity. Which is of course different than explaining how parents create a child, humans seem to have a pretty good grasp on how that works.
