and they need something to blame
and to praise
I think it was more of a way for people to control other people
after all, we developed through evolution
that too
Yeeeees
but coming from how i thought
Some of the things in religious texts might have made sense for the times
Why is it so hard to just say 'I don't know.'
if i invented religion as an early man, it would be to explain the unknown
i fucking know right
Believe whatever froo froo you want. But at the end of the day, it all boils down to I don't know
why does everything need a scapegoat
no one knows
Like having only 1 sexual partner and fucking only for reproduction is a good way to prevent STDs
And there's nothing wrong with thay
how do you know god or goddeses exist
how do you know there isnt omething out there
Ofc now we understand hygiene so it doesn't matter as much
if you really think a god exist despite you not seeing him, why no believe in multiverses and aliens
that too
Back then it was okay because we weren't overpopulated the way we are now
Or things like not eating specific foods might have been to prevent fatal food poisoning
we have lenghtened our life span
And babies died a lot
like you coudnt cook pork properly in a desert
But now survival rate for moms and babies is alot higher
exactly
And turns out women have a lot more to contribute than just baby makers
id say the only reason religion exists, is because most people need a belief system to stay docile, or are too afraid to think of any other truth other than what they were born in
^^^^^^
some people still don't get it T_T
They need an answer to the big 'I don't know.'
exactly
A lot of people like being told what to think
^^
i know i did as a kid
Yes and it's so much easier to convince kids!
but now im ready to accept the fact that i am in the dark
not all kids though
