Apparently, there is a God, because Biden said it would take an active God and he just dropped out
But no politics here I think
I kicked the big helsinki egg
I kicked the big public egg
Is religion an evolutionary trait?
Or perhaps a byproduct of the formation of complex social communities?
I think religions existed many of thousands of years before we had social communities that we would consider “complex”
Evidence of religion dates back to the middle Paleolithic
I think an interesting PhD thesis could be done on the topic that the formation of complex social structures, especially government and the notion of a complex hierarchy, laid the groundwork for the invention of monotheism.
Do you think having a monarchal structure to society, having a king led to a centralized ideal which resulted in more widespread acceptance of monotheism?
Clearly, there were cultures that had kings without monotheism, so it’s not a one-to-one correspondence
But I think it was a requisite
Well everything is relative. Any religious thought especially in the beginning is still coming from a foundation of complex socializations
I think it’s hard to find any group of people, no matter how small, in any pocket of the planet, that doesn’t have a religion so I think the evidence points the other direction
I wonder why Denmark became atheists after coming from Norse gods
I mean I don’t remember who said it but we are all atheists since many ppl disregard so many other religions in favor of their own.
I think ppl join religions has less to do with the religion and more to do with being apart of a community.
And that’s why I think religion was a survival mechanism. It was a glue that kept communities together stronger and survive longer
Source? Denmark is approximately 20-25% self-identified as atheist, which is typical for Western Europe.
Oh, make that 25-30% self-identify as atheists
Even the orgins of the Big Bang would’ve had to happen somewhere
(That brings in the space facet into this)
& the space the Big Bang originated from would’ve also had to began existing at a time.
So even with the “big bang” nothing can escape time.
& while where talking about time, I think it’s a good thing to mention “time” is just an interchangeable definition.
Meaning, it’s just one of many words, to describe the thing we’re referring to.
(“the thing” being life)
You apparently don’t understand physics or cosmology. Best not to talk about it?
Don’t think I need to understand cosmology to understand Space-Time….its a pretty simple concept
Further demonstration you are unqualified to say anything…
What did I say that was incorrect?
Cause u always have something to say & nothing to back it up
A “pretty simple concept?”
What about what I said was inaccurate?
I always back up what I say. That you can’t understand it is your problem, not mine
I’m the grand scheme of things yes, Space-Time is a simply concept
