I think a lot of people really have religious overtones of having come from somewhere. I mean, even the whole concept of religion is kind of alien.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Religious belief itself is an adaptation that has evolved because we're hard-wired to form tribalistic religions.
Through some combination of culture and biology, our minds are intuitively receptive to religion.
All too often, the word 'religion' has become identified with those promoting a frankly anti-scientific view of nature and of our place in the natural world.
Most religious people in America fully embrace science. So the argument that religion has some issue with science applies to a small fraction of those who declare that they are religious. They just happen to be a very vocal fraction, so you got the impression that there are more of them than there actually is.
Religion is one dimension of culture, a transcendent element of it.
There's no reason to bring religion into it. I think we ought to have as great a regard for religion as we can, so as to keep it out of as many things as possible.
I think people often come to the synagogue, mosque, the church looking for God, and what we give them is religion.
We believe that God is big enough to give every nationality their own religion, as he's given them their own taste in food, in plants, in furniture, and housing. I think that each religion has their basic Christ-ish way to get to the Everlasting God.
Religion has endured since the dawn of human consciousness precisely because it encompasses so much of being human. No idea has endured so long, gathered up so many disparate needs and wants and feelings, and inspired so many different paths towards understanding it.
I have a sneaking suspicion that all religions lead to the same place, a very unified place.
