Is the concept of god at its most basic, most primal form that of a man literally in the sky?
If so, how might have this come about at first?
My personal hypothesis: Anatomically modern humans had been burying their dead for a while. Whenever the "Silverback", so to speak, the lead male of the family died, they would've associated him with good fortune and possibly seen visions of him or in dreams.
How that translates to him being associated with living in the sky, I dunno...
