The gods don't have full control over the believer

Since every person that holds a belief in a god or a savior were indoctrinated into their beliefs by other believers, the man made gods and saviors loose all their power when the believer is asleep, they can only control the believers thoughts when they are concious, therefore the man made gods and saviors loose all their power to control the believers thoughts when they are either asleep, or unconsicous.

Since one half of the worlds population is either basically asleep at any given time, the man made gods loose their power and miss out on much of their undeserved praise.
