So many diverse/detached cultures have created similar supernatural belief systems that there has to something that they all had in common. That would be the human mind.Yes, that seems right to me, too. Those kinds of fields are ways that we could try to figure out that core, underlying need of why we generally believe in the supernatural. I think Boru is right in how we understand why we believe certain things about the supernatural.
