I have recently been thinking about the concept of Meta truth. This is something that is not actually factually true yet the belief serves some purpose. A few examples courtesy of the Sam Harris Podcast.

1: The belief that a porcupine can actually launch it's spines. Not actually true but porcupine are dangerous animals and you might want your kids to believe this if they go to wander in the woods.

2: A responsible gun user will always treat a gun as loaded, no matter how certain he or she might be that it is not. They might say something like, "There's no such thing as an unloaded gun."

My favorite is #3: The value of money. Money has immeasurable utility but the utility and its "value" work only because we all believe in it. In reality money is completely artificial and has no intrinsic value.

I have come to see religious belief as meta truth. In some cases it serves the needs of the believer and in some cases it serves the needs of those who would control the believer, usually a blend of both. The needs vary widely depending on the individual. Some people need them more than others or not at all. A way to understand religion is to ask, "What needs (generally emotional) does belief serve?"

That's an oxymoron.

When takling about religion.... logic is seldom ever used.... at lest by believers it isn't.

That’s a pretty broad topic. Can you narrow it down a bit by making a point or asking a question?
