I agree with your general sentiment when it comes to religions - but I think it's mistaken to say that the _concept_ of god is fiat. It might be just misled superstition, or something else, but I wouldn't call it fiat.

Completely disconnected cultures don't have the same general concept because someone told them so. Definitions of that concept are another thing - that can be fiat.

Fake thing that "exists" purely by decree and only in the intangible fantasy realm and if you refuse to believe in it and act in accordance, the people who maintain that the thing exists will get mad at you (and perhaps arrest or kill you).
