You will never be gods.
Funny how that works.
>Catholicism is filled with Pagan symbols and rituals, and superstitions
Of course it is. They can't erase that part of the world from existence, just hide the fact that it exists at all from the general public.
Gnostic scriptures have some really damn interesting things to say about the nature and deeds of those who dream of themselves as rulers.
Aton, in ancient Egyptian religion, a sun god, depicted as the solar disk emitting rays terminating in human hands, whose worship briefly was the state religion. The pharaoh Akhenaton (reigned 1353โ36 bce) returned to supremacy of the sun god, with the startling innovation that the Aton was to be the only god (see Re). To remove himself from the preeminent cult of Amon-Re at Thebes, Akhenaton built the city Akhetaton (now Tell el-Amarna) as the centre for the Atonโs worship.
The most important surviving document of the new religion is the Aton Hymn, which was inscribed in several versions in the tombs of Akhetaton. Like some other hymns of its period, the text focuses on the world of nature and the godโs beneficent provision for it. The hymn opens with the rising of the sun:
>Men had slept like the dead; now they lift their arms in praise, birds fly, fish leap, plants bloom, and work begins. Aton creates the son in the motherโs womb, the seed in men, and has generated all life. He has distinguished the races, their natures, tongues, and skins, and fulfills the needs of all. Aton made the Nile in Egypt and rain, like a heavenly Nile, in foreign countries. He has a million forms according to the time of day and from where he is seen; yet he is always the same.

Should note, that according to the novel "Sinuhe" from the time period, the elongated heads of the Pharaoh's family are not natural, but actually the result of negro sorcerers elongating the skull in the womb to provide for easier child birth.
