Brain rejects negativity
#3
RE: Brain rejects negativity
I think this helps explain why religion is so prevalent and why people think it's 'so obvious' that god exists. Their brain rejects the idea that their life is meaningless beyond what purpose they can themselves can create.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
