Evolution's reason for God
#7
RE: Evolution's reason for God
You are right, other things do evolve. I should have been more specific in that I thought he was speaking of biological evolution.

Though I guess I didn't express myself quite right. While beleif in a religion does have good things that come from it, I beleive they are far outweighed by the bad things they give, thus I class religion as a whole as a bad thing.

I guess my stance would be that I don't think it IS an evolved (biologically) thing really so, my points look for other anwers. We could, as a society remove religion (and even the supernatural) without evolving biologically at all but, I can see where we would still desire there to be more to the world as that is another of our desires. That which we cannot reach.

Most likely from my view it is just so engrained into our society that it seems to be a natural part of us. People talk about the 'god sized hole' and how nothing else can fill it but, maybe we're just using one big square to fill the space four smaller squares would normally fill.

Thanks for bringing up my post though, I don't think I gave quite the message I was intending.
