he tricked his way into godhood, by claiming the role of the trickster god. By tricking your way claiming you and lorkhan were the same doesn't mean he should have become a god. Therefor the current gods had no right in doing so. You stated whether he deserved it is irrelevant however that can't be possible; if he deserved it then the gods made it so. If he didn't deserved it and was tricking others into believing he and lorkhan was the same then clearly the gods wouldn't have made him a god.

In other words what i'm saying is clearly your incorrect that he tricked others into believing this. The gods must have felt he is a tremendous help in the world and he fit a role that was missing amongst the other gods. Thus he became a god. I see no real reason why they would make someone a god who was tricking people into believing he was someone else. That's like saying I'm truly god irl and I should ascend to being a god when I die. It makes little sense and pretending to be someone is technically a crime in some form. you don't seem to understand the concept of manteling, he didn't convince anyone that he was lorkhan, what he convinced was the godhead, the universe itself, he tricked existance, no god, man or mer could make talos a god, this is a power far beyond the divines, they are but ants to the godhead.
