Humans seeking to be gods or to seize the objects/attributes of godhood is a common theme across many myths. Of course, the concept of divinity has been interpreted and reinterpreted in a multitude of ways. If we're talking about the capital-G Prime Mover, GOD, the phrases, 'equal to God' and, 'apprehend God' are incoherent. If one could ever understand or be equal to God, then to what extent is God GOD? To what extent have you actually reached the highest of goals? Imagine an insect strove to be equal to the greatest human and thought they'd reached the pinnacle of existence. That also raises the question of why a human would want to be a god anymore than an insect would want to be a human. Ants don't lust to be humans. Insofar as they have desires, they want to be what they are. For all their insignificance in the grand scheme, they fulfill their niche. The desire of men to be god is an all-too human desire and judging by the myths, it's rooted in some degree of self-delusion and hubris. 

There's beauty in this hubris and blind courage that transcends the irony and unpleasantness of the ultimate fate of Icarus but it's not capital-G God. If you view the corporeal as a prison then that perspective will define your escape. We all get what we want when we die, we truly do create our own reality and un-reality but nobody creates it on their own anymore than one creates themselves. Whether you think your birth was a blessing or a curse, an ascension or a degeneration, it was something bestowed by something Other nonetheless. If you seek out godhood then you need to be very aware of what you're pursuing. It's more than just having power, knowledge, and invulnerability. If God is worth anything it is because He is wise.

What's to say our life was given? How can we receive something if we aren't? In the paradoxes of time, could we have given us self life? (Please respond, you are really activating my brain fluid)
