being and coming-into-being at a more or less bad translation
not in ther appearence
religion came as a institution to regulate social behaviour
and after some time restricted pratices such as canibalism and poligamy
And they believed in magical dieties still
because of property relations
they did because they couldnt understand or show the real process because alienation is inherent to cult value
we need to look deeper than the appearence to get to the religious real content
Christians arent being alienated
they are in many ways
Such as?
religion is inherent alieantion
such as lets say
the passages about sodom and gomorrah
Give an example for the average christian
God is omnipotent and oniscient while being all knowning
thats logically impossible
Right but they believe it because they dont think it is
while being "good"
@Mr. X exactly
How's that alienation?
they are alienated from the logical fallacy that this represents
Lacking knowledge isnt alienation
as even questioning is looked like a "bad attitude" in religion
@Mr. X it can be if its institutionalized
Used to for sure, not as much now though
and the church is a institution as long as i know
They werent controlling the lack of knowledge
it was the same as thinking the earth was not in the centre of the universe
they simply didnt know
in the religious field? for many they do
I highly doubt that now
many religious cadres have a good enough education to know those things
not the followers of the faith though
How do you think Atheism became more and more of a thing out of christianity?
and thats where alienation comes in
because capitalism needs at least a partial dismantling of those institutions
as the bible has a lot of feudal ideology
such as separatism on the roman empire and so on
So how would atheism benefit capitalism?
