Imagination led to religion?

That article sounds pretty narrow minded, imho...I can just see an abstract reading 'here we think of the quickest, easiest possible dismissal...' :D

I feel that bits of it ring true. And he certainly does have something with the moral codes bit.

 

Religion instils this feeling of right & wrong, good & bad - duality if you will. It is almost as if it was created either for control of the populace or simply with good intentions often lost in dogma. And certainly without separation into opposites (for better or worse) we would never have developed discrimination.

 

So it did have a function behind its creation. Whether for good or bad is still in the balance because humanity is still here.....right now.
