What is a God?

The Old English word "god" comes from Old norse guph/gud, from proto-Germanic gudan (german is "Gott" which actually originates from an indo-european word also for "god" [*gHuto]), and many other words.

A god is a deity or supernatural being worshipped by people for their power and influence over the world or a particular aspect of it. Gods have been worshipped throughout human history, often as part of organized religions or belief systems. Different cultures and religions have their own unique pantheons of gods, each with their own attributes, personalities, and mythologies.

What is an Archetype?

An archetype is a universally recognized symbol, character, or pattern of behavior that appears across cultures and is used to represent a particular set of personality traits, emotions, or values. In psychology, archetypes are often used to describe patterns of personality that are common to humanity as a whole. The concept was introduced by Swiss psychologist Carl Jung, who believed that archetypes were inherited from our ancestors and that they exist in the collective unconscious of all humans.
