[ExI] Function of religions

[spike]

On Behalf Of Will Steinberg
 
Religion allows abstraction of personal memes into giant, supra-human,
replicating beasts of causal tentacles, emergent tooth and nail.   
So we become the cells of our own gods, and by focusing on that image we
even create it...and the deities of our dreams duke it out on the world
stage.
 
 
WOW!  Poetic insight, profound, right to the point.  Is it original?  That
comment is almost worthy of being framed and hung on the wall.  Thanks Will!
