re: #405 Liet_Kynes
I don’t know of any ancient civilization that lacked belief in any god.
And you think this is a point in religion’s favor — that it was conceived during the Bronze Age?
Rather than assuming this means religious fervor is “innate,” I suggest it’s much more likely that these primitive cultures were exactly that — primitive, utterly ignorant of science, and dominated by superstition.
Your argument says exactly the opposite of what you think it says.
