I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too

Edit: Usually these kind of posts only used to have excerpts from books or ancient proverbs, but now I am seeing a lot more quotes from shows/movies/games are also resonating with people. It’s pretty cool to see.

    To be fair, religion is a much more abstract concept than people give it credit for.

    Think early humans engaging in ‘shamanistic’ rituals (taking psychedelics) and trying to make sense of what they saw.

    I believe a lot of the early interpretations of religion have just been bastardized by conmen and those who don’t care to understand the truth.
