I claim it is THE example of SUPERSTITION, as defined in my Chambers dictionary thus:-
" a deep-rooted but unfounded general belief ".
As I stated previously, you simply WANT to believe in the supernatural.
Indeed, bozo. Using that kind of "reasoning"
Quote:Ancient Egyptian religion encompasses the various religious beliefs and rituals practiced in ancient Egypt over more than 3,000 years, from the predynastic period until the adoption of Christianity in the early centuries AD. These beliefs centered on the worship of multiple deities who represented various aspects of nature, ideas and functions of power, expressed by the means of complex and varied archetypes.
Egyptian religion is more true than xtianity by a factor of 1/3.
And, let's be clear about something. Xtianity was "adopted" because of Imperial Edict not because it convinced many people with its bullshit story.
You misinterpreted what i said: i dont mean that because a lot of people believe in it for a long time it is true. I mean that the fact that the Church has lasted 2000 years shows its godly origins. No other organization has ever lasted that long, not even the great roman empire.
