Let me have my personal say about the origins of religion.
We believe in God because we need to believe for our own peace of mind.
I believe that it all started out from our inner fear of the unknown.
Now, what I have just said may indeed hurt some people feelings, but we are a
fearful lot. We are looking for security all the time, so we live in
communities to feel safe; oc course it is human nature to feel this fear of the
unknown and it is good because in the long run it helps us survive.
The origin of religion therefore is an extended reaction to our inner
fear, which we try to control by simple reasoning of our mental
capacity. So when we were facing unexplainable things, we found a way
out in religion, which is good at explaining the unexplainable and at the same time it gave us some security.
I do not know voice this for the rest of the community; but this is what I personally believe.
What do you believe I would like to know?
Do you think I may be right about my beliefs?
If not why is it so?
If you believe in God
