There is nothing human-like about the universe, or nature, or nebulas, or dirt. There is no touch of humanity in anything outside of what humans make.
God is unique, and all those unified systems speak volumes about the ideas of God. But then we have holy books, like the bible, torah, and quran that are considered "God inspired" or "the Word of God". Everything about these books shout to us, "human!", "human!", "human!".
Instead of looking at everything (the universe, nature, dirt, life, death, etc.) as the open, honest, enigmatic, and unique word and language of God, we are encouraged by man to put these things secondary, and consider holy books the most important resource when it comes to the "A, B, C's" of God (e.g., understanding gravity won't stop God from tossing you in hell, turning the heat up to the highest possible setting).
I choose to believe God everyday, and everyday I am given something new. My abilities to read and understand human languages are never a requirement. How cruel and unjust a requirement?
