Religion: worlds best ever scam?

In the second book of the bible, exodus, shortly after ’god’ has given the 10 commandments to Moses, god suddenly needs money! Seriously, shortly after creating the universe and everything in it, ’God’ needs money. Apparently he couldnt create it, or take it, so he had to get his main man on one tiny region, on one tiny planet in one tiny solar system, in one tiny galaxy etc etc to give him money. This book has been available for thousands of years, and yet people fail to see the obvious that THAT MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER!
