“It is the philosophers, theologians, and evangelists who are said to be filled with pride and bigotry due to the strong convictions that they represent. On the contrary, teachings can be either taken or dismissed; whereas voting is the only thing the average person can do to force everyone to live how they would prefer. A simple vote is among the largest yet most acceptable forms of bigotry, and that is because people play the card only when they feel that in doing so it conveniences themselves.” PeopleFeelsPersonsSaidPlayFormStrongForceCan DoSimpleTakenTeachingPrideVoteFilledAveragePhilosopherConvictionDuesContraryCardsVotingBigotryAcceptableTheologianConvenienceAverage PersonEvangelists Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“Does religion fill a much needed gap? It is often said that there is a God-shaped gap in the brain which needs to be filled: we have a psychological need for God -- imaginary friend, father, big brother, confessor, confidant -- and the need has to be satisfied whether God really exists or not. But could it be that God clutters up a gap that we'd be better off filling with something else? Science, perhaps? Art? Human friendship? Humanism? Love of this life in the real world, giving no credence to other lives beyond the grave?” WorldNeedsGivingHumansDoeArtSaidRealBigsReligionFatherBrainBrotherNeededFilledHumanismGravesSatisfiedPsychologicalThis LifeGapsReal WorldImaginaryBetter OffFillingClutterCredenceImaginary FriendConfidantPsychological Needs Author:Richard Dawkins
