Re: Religion V Evolution (Round 1) ding ding

OH oh OH oh AND... proof of the whole "evolution contributed to the making of religion" was that look at all the religions... atleast look at all the major ones...

all the stories are similar in ways... like there is lots of religions that the same path of christ, or w/e the equivelant is, took.

died and ressurected after 3 days for example was the same for atleast 4 or 5 religions.

Some theorise it's all astronomy, with the life of Jesus/that other god/Horus/FISH being a metaphor for the sun's cycle or journey across the sky or something.

More to the point, this thread bores me, which means something has changed in the past few months.

Re: Religion V Evolution (Round 1) ding ding

I've always felt that Religion came about through our own species inability to just accept that sometimes bad shit happens.

I tend to think of Ug the early thinker having stalked a deer for an hour and a half waiting for the right time to shoot, drawing back his stone tipped spear to chuck it - and the dear being startled by a crack of lightning. I can see Ug going home and blaming some supernatural power controlling the weather, then praying that said power didn't do it the next time, thus starting a belief system in that particular Thunder-Lightning Deity.

Sun worship probably started in a similar way During the Ice Age.

Ug told his mates about how praying helped keep the Thunder-Lightning god happy, so they start praying for bad shit to stop happening to the sun, the seemingly endless ice age is eventually lifted - vindicating their beliefs, then through mental amounts of creativity and re-writes, you have the modern religions.

See if Ug had just turned around and said "Bad shit happens..." he'd have went out, caught another deer that day and the belief system would have never started. He'd have caught a fuck-load more deer in his life and Humanity as a species would have grown at a much faster rate.
