Even so, we do have alot of control, we do have the power to paint our world, yet we do not have ultimate power. You did not create yourself, do you remember yourself as a newborn, helpless, still rewind, man was less than this, still rewind we were nothing. So at least acknowledge yourself as a created soul with a created shell in a created temporary world. The body is from this earth, the soul is from ourside of this world. We will live and never die. For all of this, what does the creator ask? The only thing the Creator asks is that we believe in Him ( not male or female ) and not anything else. So to worship yourself is pointless.

Its not a trap its not to keep us "down". Revelation has been sent. But people will never believe. That is all part of it.
The creator lets us wander so far away from Him, its obvious this is a test.
