To answer the question posted to me about discrediting philosophy my answer is no.I am not discrediting philosophy,my argument is that philosophy is not an appropriate discipline for the analysis of religion in general.Philosophy is mere speculation and when it comes to the topic of religion and the existence of God etc. it tends to cloud the issue so much more by over thinking the matter.Adding new definitions and terminologies to a subject that is already rife with both.
When it comes to religion philosophy does nothing more than cloud the issues at hand.I am of the opinion that religion is not as complicated as many philosophers or thinkers of our time tend to make it.I am of the opinion that religion is obviously a creation of man,man at one time or another has pretty much worshipped everything on this earth in his search for wholeness.The history of religion is full of religions that worship nature,animal,ancestral,kings,imaginary deities etc.
Regarding insane philosophers I will not even bother to indulge in creating a list of them because that is not what this thread is about.Hell, if it makes you happy I will take back that statement and move on with the issue at hand.
When it comes to religion I am pretty sure that God or gods did not come to Earth to reveal themselves to anyone.In my view all illusions to visitations from the gods is nothing more than myths and folklore.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
