I don't think the passage you quote means that.

Heb 8:10...I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts...11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me.

Seems pretty clear to me that they won't need anyone to tell them, for they shall know what God wants them to know.

Ask Him to reveal Himself to you. If He exists, and you are serious in attempting to know Him, then He will answer.

The Muslims and Jews certainly can do that - but that doesn't invalidate my argument.

I think it does.

Ask Him to reveal Himself to you. If He exists, and you are serious in attempting to know Him, then He will answer.

Reveal himself to you how? How do you know it's God? 2 Cor 11:14 "...even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light."

Not necessarily. Sure there has been a Human cultural influence over these tales, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are Human creations

Whose are they? Klingons'?

And who is God referring to in that passage? And when?

I dont know how God will choose to reveal himself to you. He stands at the door and knocks. Do you think He would not come in if you opened the door? I dont believe he would allow satan to answer a prayer like that. Would he give you a stone if you asked for bread?

Whose are they? Klingons'?

As we are discussing whether they are God's creations or Man's creations, and you allege they are Man's, and I am stating they are not, then clearly I think they are God's creations. And as these are communications from God, then to be effective communications, people would have to relate to them. Therefore there is a cultural influence. QED.
