Religion

[HorrorElementFilms]

To be honest, I see the idea of "God" and "Satan", a symbolic representation of human society. There is good, and there is evil. I feel as though these "superior beings", are a human's way of putting a name or symbol to the world around them. The phrase "God is all in your head", could not be taken more literally in this case. That is why every different society has their own god. I feel like it's because they pinned the blame for reality on something other than themselves, just as the other societies did.

This would also show just how similar our minds function to one another. The difference between creationists and atheists/agnostics, is that one of them has decided that the blame for events and the universe is not from a superior being, but of themselves, and the universe itself. Some people are not comfortable with the idea of a universe that is self-consistent, so they turn to a more loving and respectful type of idea.
While self comfort is more ideal with the human mind, it is not ideal for the reality of absolute existence. I was once religious, and subconsciously felt the need to believe in something that was superior and sentient. But the more and more I grew from the idea, I saw the dysfunction of the world around me. And the more and more I realized that this seemingly random dysfunction, was in turn a form of function, I became aware of what religion really was.
An idea. Not necessarily a bad one, but an abused one at that. I choose not to typically argue religion as I know that with the passing time, humans themselves, will gain their OWN confidence. And I know that many will recognize the universe for the self sufficient big ball of random that it is. The day that we discover life outside of our typical planet, is the day that we'll see the world that we live in for what it is, and not what we want it to be.
