Flanderization Of God
Level 1 – Surface Web
The concept of “Flanderization”—the process by which a character’s defining traits become exaggerated over time—has been applied to none other than God in this conspiracy theory. It suggests that as humanity’s understanding of divinity evolved, particularly in religious texts, God was simplified into a caricature of His original form. What was once a multifaceted, omnipotent being has been reduced to an exaggerated archetype that fits the narratives of organized religions. According to the theory, this process has been orchestrated by religious authorities over millennia to control people’s perception of God, making divine mystery more manageable and less threatening to their power.
