Why do you think religion exists? This is more for the atheists out there.

A fair question. It is for morality and to teach us many things that are logical. It's not just that, it's also because we do not think ourselves greater. We believe there is a greater power. Funny thing, one of my friends was teaching Sunday school and was explaining how atheists believe there is a giant flying spaghetti monster out there to devour us or whatever. Well here's the thing, atheists believe there is a lack of evidence or rather they probably once believed and lost faith because of no answer to his or her prayers etc etc. It's what keeps people going in life. They want hope, they want to believe there is a man upstairs watching us and ofc, many wonder "How did life begin?, How were we created?". There is some good news though for those who don't believe; evidence of biblical locations have already been shown. Watch this video for reference: (The Christian won) [https://www.youtube.com/watch? Check out these sites for reference: https://answersingenesis.org/is-the-bible-true/3-evidences-confirm-bible-not-made-up/ [https://biblearchaeology.org/research/ There is also a debate between Ken Ham and Bill Nye on Creationism vs Evolution: (Ken Won) [https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo- Atheism has already been destroyed in arguments long before. God wins. 1

-I really think it's the human need to have an explanation for everything. -People suddenly start to wonder how do we think? Why can we think? and how they can think? With all these incredible phenomena occurring around the world, it's easier to just say somebody wanted it to happen. -But I think we need religion. -I think we need religion because we need social security. -As a functional society, we can't have people doing whatever they want for themselves harming others or property. A religion tells us there are magical consequences for everything we do, good or bad. That stops people from doing bad things because they don't want to be screwed after life. -It's also about hope, a purpose to justify these insanely complicated lives we lead. A lot of people just live their lives peacefully and as good people because they believe their life after death will be better because of it. If they start to think that there is no life after death and that we might not even have souls and just be machines of nature, they will lose a purpose. 0

Wokeness exists to fill the void where God would normally be. In order to get the "God comfort" they make the state a god rather than doing things like personal responsibility. It's the new god of convenience. They'll support this god that claims it helps. Even though it makes most things worse, they still worship it in order to feel like they did something in life. 0
