In African culture, the fundamental African belief was, if God created man, then man would be called God just as offspring of a chicken are called chickens. This makes a lot of sense to me.
In Caucasian culture, a person whose behavior is according to the teachings of Jesus Christ is called a Christian.
In African culture, a person’s behavior that follows God’s Maat principles were called a God or Goddess. This was not to be confused to mean Almighty God, The Creator, etc.
