The least bad reason for believing in religion
First, let's be completely clear.
ANY type of religious belief is without merit.
It's completely, totally FALSE. Just the briefest survey of the evidence makes this abundantly clear.
That makes it rather hard to invent a defense of religion, since there isn't one. It's all fake and made-up.
But if you HAD to, what would you come up with?
I can only think of one thing.
Religious belief is so self-evidently crazy and absurd, that it might actually be inhuman. Alien even.
Individual humans and the world are stupid, but there has to be a limit somewhere. Religion appears to exceed that limit. It's just TOO dumb.
That's the best evidence that it might conceivably be paranormal.

It's a bit weird (human stupidity that is).
ReplyDeleteHumans are not dumb in nice ways like Forest Gump, but in secret cunning ways.
Society is more complicated than that.
Anything you want to accomplish has been made incredibly difficult and elaborate for no reason. Yet people somehow manage to do all these things.
