I don’t believe Genesis 1 to be canon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genesis_creation_narrative

Israel and Palestine on the same side

Bazzite is atomic, not immutable

Do the horses get impaled? I’d be so worried for the horses

Personally I’d spend less energy avoiding spending my way into further debt than I would dealing with the stress of being in all that debt, but everyone’s different on the inside.

Your hypothesis was that people use religion to explain the unknown, while this study concludes that religious people are more likely to judge the unknown as unknowable. Needless to say, one cannot explain the unknowable. Therefore, your hypothesis is countered by this evidence.

Once again, science proves that tidy little stories atheists make up to explain the world around us are just that - stories. Next time, I’d suggest avoiding speculation you can’t back up with empirical research.

If we set aside truth for a moment, then we can enjoy fiction. It’s called suspending one’s disbelief.

Christianity is a heretical perversion of Jesus’ teachings

When I was a child I saw a Scooby Doo movie where military police told Scooby and the gang to stay away from an area they were investigating for evidence of aliens

For me it was the face detail and animation in Halo 4. The way the pores and lines on Halsey’s face were visible.

This advice is intended for people with more money than sense who are going to spend their way into debt no matter how much they have, and who will only cut down on spending when they’re in the red.

Yes, yes, I already said truth is good for medical decisions. I just don’t think it needs to be crammed into every aspect of our lives. Sometimes people just want a break from truth.

Perhaps you could provide the search query terms which will lead me to an empirical study confirming your hypothesis? I’m not sure what to search to find your evidence for you.

That’s a cute story that provides a tidy explanation for religion, but is it supported by the anthropological evidence? Where are your sources? Are you sure you’re not just making up stories in an attempt to explain things that you do not understand?

Well Andrew Tate is obviously trying to gather worshippers and become the god of masculinity

Why should I care about truth? I think kindness and wisdom are more important for making good decisions. Sure, truth has its place, like with medical decisions and climate policy. But it doesn’t need to infect every aspect of our lives. I don’t care about truth when I go to the movies and watch a red metal man punch a big purple man.

There will be no magical discoveries religious people make anymore

I implore you to consider the fact that every living culture on this earth is still changing, evolving, and growing, and even some dead religions have been revived. And these religions have access to the scientific method just as you do.

So unless you mean to imply that science is finished making discoveries, which I’m certain you don’t, then religions will keep making discoveries. The Buddhists are still improving their meditation techniques. The Pacific islanders are still training to be better wayfarers. The Australian Aboriginals are learning to care for a land ravaged by climate change.

Religions as dead things written in an old book is a western idea and I fear you have projected this onto distinctly nonwestern religions where truth comes from a connection to the ancestors and the land, constantly evolving as the people and the land evolve. And to nonwestern religions where truth comes from exploration of the mind, and surely you can see the mind is a highly dynamic environment in the modern day, ripe for fresh discoveries.
