What is needed to combat the overwhelming level of belief in God?
#24
RE: What is needed to combat the overwhelming level of belief in God?
No, but what I'm saying is it's actually pretty obviously not imprinted in our brains forever. It's just an ideological product. You wouldn't argue that animals are religious too, only humans are - because they think. They thought this shit, it didn't simply come with the package. And case in point, you and me don't believe that stuff. It's not really that hard to imagine that we can encourage other people to see things as we do, and they in turn to do the same for others, and so on.

What I'm saying is you keep stating that humans are doomed to be religious, but look how many of us aren't. Are you saying we're gifted somehow, like genetically or something, and that's why we're able to overcome it?
