I like this. I’m an agnostic and I read this book called “The God Theory” by Bernard Haisch. The author is a man of science and approaches this problem from a (semi) scientific perspective.
Over the course of the book, he makes hypotheses and challenges them and eventually arrives at a theory that seems a workable explanation of the state of the world and religion in general.
It’s a very interesting read and I would 100% recommend it. It’s been a while since I read it, but his theory at the end is not very different from your comment.
“All religions are true but none are literal.”
“mythology is not a lie, mythology is poetry, it is metaphorical.”
