A Nature of Religion

[Hawkins]

Religion itself is a proof that, "the god of this world has blinded the minds of men".

Religion is a natural human need. Humans are creatures of preparing a future. We find a job for tomorrow's life (animals don't need to). We join a pension plan for expenses after retirement. Future however is divided into two parts, the part before death can be speculated by humans, but not the part beyond death.

Science is experiment based. Humnas however lack the ability to beyond our own realm and space to establish experiments. That is to say, science is incapable of detecting even the simplest existences if they don't lie within our own realm/space. Actually religion is build upon the inability of science.

That said. The only way remains for humans to get to the truth beyond death is through a God who knows such a future. That's the true nature of what religion is. In nature, find a God makes no difference from finding a job. You failed to come to this conclusion because you are blinded from accessing even the simplest reasoning. Humans are captive by the much much more intelligent (fallen) angels of which the leader is referred to as "the god of this world".

Philosophy of religion as the critical examination of basic religious beliefs and concepts. 'No stipulations principle': S knows that q, iff S believes that it is possible that q. A concept is the mere simple contemplation of things offered to our minds, without affirming or denying anything concerning them; an idea. I keep repeating myself because you have to know the basics.
Veritas Aequitas writes about things he/she cannot possibly comprehend because "An answer must be in the form of an account that gives us reason to believe we have a right to use the concept" (Gascoigne 7.) Now, I do understand that Veritas Aequitas is learning but not comprehending.
I did learn about AI, over Thanksgiving Day," that Veritas Aequitas is using of questions.
Veritas Aequitas is going to be a very learned individual once he/she puts it all together. Please learn the basics first, I know you are learned person, you can read your responses.

Mythology is the other man's religion, or religion is mythology literally believed. What might have been intended as an orientation as to how to move and behave in the world becomes, through literal interpretation, mass delusion.

So religion not a comfort blanket?

So religion not a comfort blanket?

Let us say it is not intellectually challenging. Insilaton against reality, and security is comfort.
