we should build a statue for the guy that invented the sewer system at some point
Once you get rid of religion, we feel like we have to replace it with something else.
Oh i'm a problem now Rye? 😛
@RyeNorth Atheism isn't a belief system though. It's just a rejection of faith in god
You don't have to replace it with more religion
it can be replaced by secular sources
It would be fine if that was all it was but most atheists are naturalists
religion is a human universal, there are also extracts of plants and other drugs that can reliably induce a religious experience
well thats human instinct, we need a purpose
for many people, Religion and being part of "something greater" is their percieved purpose
take it away without something to fill the void, and they becme SJW's
there is something in our brain that makes us want to be religious
Like, take me
this does not mean we should not critisize them ofc
I'm an objectivist
the sense of purpose Cytos! wanting to be part of something "GREATER"
lmao, shiv told me to take her
unfortunaly she is underage
i'm an objectionist! I'm against what you say!
[Rand Intensifies]
I form my morals from philosophy
I do not need religion
you do though
The point is, once you reject God, you have to have something else to explain things you can never know
in the way we evolved it that is
not religion,
Purpose!
@RyeNorth Wikipedia
its the same thing kinda
I just clean my room
See this is the thing people seem to assume you need to believe in god for the supernatural
@RyeNorth No i don't,
I know its not god, what it IS i don't know, but i know theres a scientific way to explain it 😉
And that is not the cse
BUCKO
we subsribe meaning and rythem to systems we observe, even those we can not explain, even on a subconscious level
The key is ACCEPTING that you won't know until you get there.
which is the religion aspect of inate human cognition
beliving in god helps Mallic,
Cuz people who don't believe in imaginary sky-people tend to not believe in imaginary superstition either
you can not reason everything, you gotta have faith in somethings to remain the same
Here's my opinion about the supernatural. Nothing is true until there is empirical evidence
our brain cant handle the cognitive effort to reason it all
which can be shown in repeatable models
that which we trust in to be the case over and over without cognition, that is our religion system
