It's like claiming your character being the Nevarine in morrowind was BS Worshipping a mortal as a god and saying your character isnt the reincarnation of a great general are two completely different things though

what is the reasoning? and no dont tell me to read the posts im not shifting through 200+ posts to find the answer. just let me know in your own words, or w/e book your going to mention from the ES universe that he was perfect god material According to others who seem to know more about this than myself, which I had to search for:

Pink slim said this " I said that by manteling Shor he became a god, yes he mimiced Shor, but he mimiced him so well that the world could no longer tell them apart, he essentially became the new Shor. "

As Dovahsebrom stated in regards to this " A god is determined by the worshipper, a being does not need to be risen by the divines to be a god, just extremely powerful and worshipped. Sotha Sil,  Talos, Reman, these men are all gods; claiming that is not so, is like saying the Eight Divines aren't gods either. "  " Talos has become Lorkhan to the point where one wonders whether or not Lorkhan is the copy. "  " Tiber copied the Enantiomorph to become a god. He did not just take in Lorkhan's power, if that were the case the Tribunal would have mantled Lorkhan. "

This is essentially the explanation as to why he's a god.
