Comment on If a God or God's is so Omnipotent why do they or them or he or she, supposedly get angry, show support, enjoy things, have sex (in Greek Gods), or show forgiveness? Are the not all human emotes?

You’re sort of mixing metaphysical beliefs here.

The Ancient Greek concept of gods don’t align 1 to 1 with the Abrahamic concept of god, etc.

Each faith has a different concept of god, omnipotence, and what that means. It’s also changed over time.

Though, in short, god(s) demonstrates human traits because they’re abstractions from humans, the creatures that created them for various reasons throughout history and modernity.
