Religion

lentan · 03-26-2007, 10:08 AM

I have a theory that man came first, before god.

Man created god.

Evidence,
man's need to give and explanation to unexplanable(at that time..) phenomena, thus naming the cause; God.

man's need to infuse moral values in himself. (a lot of religions preach righteousness)

man's need to live forever. This was when man started realizing that they were going to die, and our evolved survival instinct caused ourselves to come up with an explanation that would prolong life.
It is not a coincidence that NOT A SINGLE religion doesnt preach afterlife of some form.

Discuss. (please, if you would like to say that you dont care if it is true or not, or if this isnt even important, or that it doesnt matter all, kindly press Control + Shift + Esc, Alt + U, U.)

All you're saying is that you don't believe religion is true. Believe it or not, this has occured to other people before.

This topic is going to serve no purpose but to incite another flame-filled religion topic.

Closed.
