For example: Jaws crashed the shark population and Sideways changed the popularity of 2 different Wines.

    Faith is literally defined as believing whatever someone tells you, without proof

    Belief; the assent of the mind to the truth of what is declared by another, resting solely and implicitly on his authority and veracity; reliance on testimony.

    “Faith” is a bug in the human psyche.

      So elephants are also bugged?

      Is the belief in the easter bunny or saint nicolaus bad? How is it bad to find comfort in a curtain thought of what happens after death?

      Why be so negativ and not let people enjoy faith. Have cathars, lollards, fracitellis, bun, shinto or celtic beliefers hurt you so badly or are you trying to be extra edgy and ass-holy?

        Yes all of those are exploits of that bug. How many kids cry when they learn Santa isn’t real?

        Take a look at history to see what happens when one group of people get told their imaginary friend is the fake one and they have to switch to a different one

          Mhm take a look was the aggressor an organized religion with a power structure and power position?

          Kids dont cry due to them discovering santa isnt real. It is due to them not being able to process the emotional stress of having a shattered view and distrust of lies. You really are an edgy lil kiddy whom only assumes stereotypes, arent you? Either that or a reddit atheist. Or both.

          Also interesting for you to call it “bug”. As if it is “unnatural”. Then i guess you’d say that crows, elefants, cats, and other animals who have been observed to have religious rituals.
