We used (and still use) religion to explain those things we do not yet understand. Gods of lighting and of the ocean, a sky god who created the entire universe for his (or its) own pleasure. We make up things to explain away the unknown to make them less scary.

Amen.

Gods were how ancient people explained the natural world, religion is a tool to control populations for economic and geographic gain using people’s belief in Gods against thier own interests. When it is shed completely and it’s stench ceases to permeate the fabric of civilization we may finally consider ourselves enlightened by the truth. Any good churches have done has been a façade for its evil. Art and music are not enough, if Michael Angelo had been commissioned to do the cieling of a science center it would have been no less beautiful and if Handles Messiah was about the natural movemts of the stars it would still have a meaningful impact on emotions. The universe is grand enough and is diminished by falsehoods.

Religion attempts to speak to that. It hasn't been working as well as it used to for a few centuries now, and the trend is accelerating.

Hi, Katn, and welcome to the website,

You earn website points, and help other members get to know you better, when you write an informational profile that includes your hobbies and interests, and answer all the profile questions, since that's the first place many people look when they see a new member.

Also, the website uses your profile to find member matches, so the more details you include, the better the match.

Then you make comments and write your own posts to earn more points and privileges; for instance, at level two you can private email people. You get different perks with each level, and when you reach level eight you get an agnostic T-shirt.

To find members near you, click on the "Meet" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Or click on the "About" button at the top of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.
