The Sky God Was Not A Delusion

[Aoi Magi]

There might have been a big cosmological event in the past that made it's way in some of the major religions today, but that certainly is not what started religion. Religion is born out of ignorance and the need for us to feel in control of things. Superstition is a common occurrence in the animal kingdom as demonstrated in the pigeon experiment, that combined with human intellect was bound to lead to religion, irrespective of a big cosmological event.

Religion spreads by adapting and exploiting gaps of knowledge, and it is a common occurrence for one religion to *borrow*  ideas from other religions, so given enough time it's not hard to see how the major religions might share different versions of a common story, that however doesn't do much towards adding credibility to the actual event. Nor will knowing that prevent new religions from popping up in the future.

That is why I am here, trying to say that religion was started by celestial phenomena and its subsequent impact on Man and Earth.  It is clear if one reads enough of the very ancient prayers, they are begging the Sky God to stop killing them.  Superstition of animals?  What pigeon experiment?  This has got to be good !  I think your saying it was just all made up, is that right?  If religious thought was all just spread from a common source then there is going to be a lot of explaining to be done such as the intercourse of all the cultures of the globe and yet their stories are distinct from each other in the methodology and yet their content the same more or less.

And no, I am not saying it is all made up but rather religion is an amalgamation of many explanations-out-of-ignorance originating from many different sources for many different events, which isn't limited to only cosmological event, let alone a single event. And the pigeon experiment shows how the basis for religion and superstitious thinking is within our very nature and can be seen as an artefact of evolution itself.
