No, this is how Man claims God views religion, especially Man-made religion (i.e. all religions)

Belief in God can be a deeply personal and complex issue, and what might seem like common sense to one person might not be the same for another. For many people, faith is about more than just logic or empirical evidence - it's about their relationship with the divine, their sense of purpose, and their values. I'm curious, what do you think is the basis for your perspective on this?
Faith isn't about blindly following; we know exactly whom we've put our trust in, and more importantly, why. For those of us who believe, our faith is rooted in a personal relationship with God, guided by His Word, and shaped by our experiences. God provides purposeful wisdom and instruction, guiding our lives with direction and love.

@G7J2O - "That’s your opinion. It was written by men, just like all the other religions. Unless you want to give an example of a “man-made” religion."
I understand why you might think that, and it's true that the Bible was written by humans, but not how you think. God did not entrust the writing of His precious word to be transcribed, by just anyone. Careful Bible study shows the Bible's origin comes from writers who were inspired by the Holy Spirit, who guided them to write God's message. As 2 Peter 1:21 says, 'no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but by "holy men of old" as they were inspired to write God's words, under the direction and inspiration of the Holy Spirit.' This understanding of divine inspiration is what sets the difference between God's Holy Word and "man-made" beliefs. Religion did not die on the cross to save us from our sins. The person of Jesus did. That's the difference.

@DanielsASJ I agree, but please always proof read your answer before you post it. Fill in the last words to your sentence so I can understand it better please. That crazy spell check puts in words sometimes that we don't want and changes the whole meaning of our reply.

No one has ever met or seen god. It has never been shown to exist. So it is impossible to know.
