Quote:LOL doesn't the rise in organised religion only realy start with the development of farming?I run a decent little farm myself, for some strange reason I haven't been harvesting gods where I expected to find carrots. Meanwhile, I remain mysteriously immune to the causative agent proposed.
It would probably be less of a stretch to say that farming -being the absolutely brilliant discovery that it was- allowed for larger groups of people (who already had fun little beliefs and idols by the by) to coalesce and sustain themselves. It might have also promoted conformity in those populations, a situation we're all to familiar with even today is that when you start cramming more people in tighter spaces problems arise. If only one could sell people on the idea of social mandates and absolute authority, you might be able to reduce some confrontation (or at least get a bigger slice of the pie, in any case).
