It 's a fact that the world is very religious. Just consider how many religions in the one direction "atheism" to see otherwise. Many believe that the trend is to a certain type of evidence supporting belief in God a lot to draw strength from their religious practices. Many believe that their particular belief system is the only truth and the whole world should convert their points of view. So, why not? There are almost as manygood arguments against religion, because for them.
The religious unity has been developed in very primitive societies. People could not understand what they saw and experienced. Lightning was a secret left and plant growth has been the subject of scarcity and abundance of seemingly random. People need religion to explain the world. Religion was their weapon against the fear of life and the fear of death.
Despite the fact that people nowdiscovered the same science to explain the world, religion survive the old fountain, as well as fear. One reason for this could be a "sheep" or "Follow the Leader" mentality. People are not willing to waste time with too much critical thinking, and then accept what they learn from their parents. This is the paradigm conformist.
Another reason is, as mentioned above fear. There are all kinds of anxiety related to religion: the eternal damnation takea significant part of religious energy. For example, Christians believe that all non-Christians condemned to eternal damnation. Detailed conditions are some fears that life itself would be meaningless without religion, not to mention what that would mean a lack of faith to the death '.
This fear is for many a religious atrocities. Religious leaders use to their advantage and the disadvantage of many. In ancient societies, people can have easyenough to hear their leader, without thinking about what they heard. But we live in a society.
We have the freedom and the right to choose what to believe and what to discard. We are smart enough to decide what makes sense and what does not. We have the knowledge to determine who is self-serving and fraudulent and who is really interested in the service of human evolution.
We no longer need to kill or maim in order to clarify our position, and yet thisstill happening. We are not obliged to believe a certain thing, and yet we are still. Do not learn from history seems to be our only consistent feature.
If more people based their opinions at the point of view of human and non-religious, maybe we could have less hunger and death in the world. Maybe we have less power-hungry leader, the killings in the name of God, serving life after death and peace instead of fear. A loving heart can change everything.
