Is Maltheism Logical?
Response to your second question: Humans often establish flawed norms and resist dissent, yet there are always individuals who stand up for their rights, freedom, democracy, justice, etc. This struggle naturally divides society into two groups. We admire those who fight for noble causes. Recognizing the one true God and rejecting false, man-made deities is an even greater endeavor. It is absurd for humans to worship idols. Prophets deliver the message of monotheism. They accept that there is a greater God, but they insist on their belief in multiple gods, despite having no evidence, argument, or scripture to support it. Not only do they reject the message of the one true God, but they also actively oppose and attempt to suppress it. This leads to division and conflict, as noble causes are often thwarted by those who resist them. Good causes cannot be put to a halt because bad people resit them.
