Well said doofy I agree with you 100%. As for regarding our king as God is just symbollic I think just as we have been able to worship the cow, monkey, mouse, bull, dog,snake etc. as God what harm do you see in worshipping a human as God too?? aren't we as humans more superior to the animals?? We are appreciating their contribution in our lives and respecting them for it and worshipping is a way of showing our respect for them. As you are educated you should learn to widen your horizon and look beyond. Our ancestors literally did what was told to them and lack of education took them to the extremes. Today everyone thinks they know everything and because of that attitude there is so much chaos and hatred among ourselves. for me worshipping is a way of expressing love and faith, we did that by calling them Bhisnu Avtaars and treated the king like the father of the whole nation so that we could flourish under his supervision.
