>Napoleon never aspired to become God
I would argue anyone who seeks to raise the State above the Church (which Napoleon absolutely tried to do, before he got trounced by Russia) has a God-Complex, even if they claim to be an Atheist.
Really??! Some sort of 2025 Koshervative-Libertarian muh state appeal that would be considered stake-worthy heresy in the 1600s?? 😄😄
The State and Emperor is why the Church existed, instead of a series of factions at war with each others.
The revolution and Republican overthrowing the aristocracy didn't happen in a vacuum, if he saw the Church of his days as a poor co-custodian of the Empire then that certainly wasn't mere ego anymore than mere jealously leading to major pogroms.
all men serve a god. that "god" may not even be a religious concept, It may be money, power, fame, pursuit of knowledge, all of these things can become a man's god. and when you put your pursuit of worldly power above The Lord, and when every action you take is in service to yourself, and your own power, you may find yourself becoming a god in your own mind.

Imagine believing that an omnipotent, limitless, immortal, and perfect God would devalue itself into a being made of flesh and bones, requiring food and sleep. Truly retarded.
It's devoid of logic and an insult to an omnipotent God. You thinking "it's true" doesn't make it so. You're just programmed to think "it's true" by like-minded simpletons.
FYI, the Prophets you also believe in (Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, etc) would strongly disagree with your version of "truth". Rather, they would consider it blasphemy to associate anything or anyone to their God, even moreso a homosapiens.

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting."
Guess what: the error-prone HUMAN who wrote this passage is WRONG. The entire thing is a baseless and unfounded charade. Probably based on simpleminded humans who elevated a miracle worker (Jesus) to godly status, whereas this miracle worker and previous miracle workers (eg. Moses) offered these Godly proofs to fellow humans when delivering God-given instructions / messages.
Believing God has a child? That's some wild speculation. Truth is, God's uniqueness is undeniable. He's the one and only, no room for offspring or partners. It's time to wake up and face the reality of His absolute unity.
he aspired to become Caeser (who aspired to become Alexander the great, who was inspired by the tales of Hercules)
