Still, there'll always be things never explained. I was suggesting that God is a comfort pillow... As they say, if God didn't exist, people would have created him.

A Jungian archetype doesn't necesarily have to mean a collective consciousness, although I guess it can (Jung was also kind of new-agey in some of his philosophies). I seem to think you're saying that people create God in their heads according to preconceived ideas, like stereotypes, usually formed around culture.
