This is not important, just make look like everything can be a god, in my perception a god is a more advanced being, either benevolent or maleficent for us.
It does matter because maybe we are the gods of other races, maybe we are the gods of the andrapod, as we humans are relatives to the gods?

So the gods have their gods also?

This is metaphysical, u guys can say is this and that but there is no proof so why to make this claims?

We are the gods of the ants? We are the gods of the monkeys?
I'm trying to understand this perspective even if is not important

You have the wrong/Abrahamic idea about the word God means. A God is simply a perfected being. It's just a title for a being who has completed the Magnum Opus. A God is just a God by themselves, it's not "the god of" someone else. It's not related to some other being. There are not "gods of the ants" or of monkeys because it's like saying "perfected beings of the ants". Maybe if an ant became sentient and completed the magnum opus, it would be called a god.

Whenever you hear the word "God" here you can just substitute it for "perfect being".

So, as somebody else said, there can be millions of gods because there can be millions of beings who have perfected themselves. If all humans reach spiritual perfection in the new Golden Age of Satan, there will be billions of gods (as there are billions of humans on earth), because all of us will be Gods!

No. Strictly speaking, there is no evil god; a god is a perfect being, as Homer said. A perfect being will not do harm without any reason and even in their way of defending themselves they are perfect, they have great wisdom within them.
