@fimilleur from time to time mankind experiences the presence of
God, there have been and continue to be events that testify to the presence of Him.The multiple

gods you mention roman etc. are all man made and in many instances men themselves i.e. hercules, but even the ancient greeks realized the limitations of their understanding and included an «unknown»
God in their worship structure.many cultures did likewise, having a glimpse of
