Is Religion Man-Made? How Did Religion Start? The Evolution of Belief (2006)

Order: Reorder
Duration: 69:07
Updated: 26 Aug 2013

The evolutionary origin of religions theorizes about the emergence of religious behavior during the course of human evolution. Humanity's closest living relatives are common chimpanzees and bonobos. These primates share a common ancestor with humans who lived between four and six million years ago. It is for this reason that chimpanzees and bonobos are viewed as the best available surrogate for this common ancestor. Barbara King argues that while non-human primates are not religious, they do exhibit some traits that would have been necessary for the evolution of religion. These traits include high intelligence, a capacity for symbolic communication, a sense of social norms, realization of "self" and a concept of continuity.[1][2][3] There is inconclusive evidence that Homo neanderthalensis may have buried their dead which is evidence of the use of ritual. The use of burial rituals is evidence of religious activity, but there is no other evidence that religion existed in human culture before humans reached behavioral modernity.[4] Marc Bekoff, Professor Emeritus of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Colorado, Boulder, argues that many species grieve death and loss.[5] There is general agreement among cognitive scientists that religion is an outgrowth of brain architecture that evolved early in human history. However, there is disagreement on the exact mechanisms that drove the evolution of the religious mind. The two main schools of thought hold that either religion evolved due to natural selection and has selective advantage, or that religion is an evolutionary byproduct of other mental adaptations.[18] Stephen Jay Gould, for example, believed that religion was an exaptation or a spandrel, in other words that religion evolved as byproduct of psychological mechanisms that evolved for other reasons.[19][20][21] Such mechanisms may include the ability to infer the presence of organisms that might do harm (agent detection), the ability to come up with causal narratives for natural events (etiology), and the ability to recognize that other people have minds of their own with their own beliefs, desires and intentions (theory of mind). These three adaptations (among others) allow human beings to imagine purposeful agents behind many observations that could not readily be explained otherwise, e.g. thunder, lightning, movement of planets, complexity of life, etc.[22] The emergence of collective religious belief identified the agents as deities that standardized the explanation. Some scholars have suggested that religion is genetically "hardwired" into the human condition. One controversial hypothesis, the God gene hypothesis, states that some variants of a specific gene, the VMAT2 gene, predispose to spirituality.[23] Another view is based on the concept of the triune brain: the reptilian brain, the limbic system, and the neocortex, proposed by Paul D. MacLean. Collective religious belief draws upon the emotions of love, fear, and gregariousness and is deeply embedded in the limbic system through sociobiological conditioning and social sanction. Individual religious belief utilizes reason based in the neocortex and often varies from collective religion. The limbic system is much older in evolutionary terms than the neocortex and is, therefore, stronger than it much in the same way as the reptilian is stronger than both the limbic system and the neocortex. Reason is pre-empted by emotional drives. The religious feeling in a congregation is emotionally different from individual spirituality even though the congregation is composed of individuals. Belonging to a collective religion is culturally more important than individual spirituality though the two often go hand in hand. This is one of the reasons why religious debates are likely to be inconclusive. Yet another view is that the behaviour of people who participate in a religion makes them feel better and this improves their fitness, so that there is a genetic selection in favor of people who are willing to believe in religion. Specifically, rituals, beliefs, and the social contact typical of religious groups may serve to calm the mind (for example by reducing ambiguity and the uncertainty due to complexity) and allow it to function better when under stress.[24] This would allow religion to be used as a powerful survival mechanism, particularly in facilitating the evolution of hierarchies of warriors, which if true, may be why many modern religions tend to promote fertility and kinship. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_religion

Updated: 16 Dec 2013

Humans (variously Homo sapiens and Homo sapiens sapiens) are primates of the family Hominidae, and the only extant species of the genus Homo.[2][3] Humans are distinguished from other primates by their bipedal locomotion, and especially by their relatively larger brain with its particularly well developed neocortex, prefrontal cortex and temporal lobes, which enable high levels of abstract reasoning, language, problem solving, and culture through social learning. Humans use tools to a much higher degree than any other animal, and are the only extant species known to build fires and cook their food, as well as the only known species to clothe themselves and create and use numerous other technologies and arts. The scientific study of humans is the discipline of anthropology. Humans are uniquely adept at utilizing systems of symbolic communication such as language and art for self-expression, the exchange of ideas, and organization. Humans create complex social structures composed of many cooperating and competing groups, from families and kinship networks to states. Social interactions between humans have established an extremely wide variety of values, social norms, and rituals, which together form the basis of human society. The human desire to understand and influence their environment, and explain and manipulate phenomena, has been the foundation for the development of science, philosophy, mythology, and religion. The human lineage diverged from the last common ancestor with its closest living relative, the chimpanzee, some five million years ago, evolving into the australopithecines and eventually the genus Homo.[4] The first Homo species to move out of Africa was Homo erectus, the African variety of which, together with Homo heidelbergensis, is considered to be the immediate ancestor of modern humans.[5][6] Homo sapiens originated in Africa, where it reached anatomical modernity about 200,000 years ago and began to exhibit full behavioral modernity around 50,000 years ago.[7] Homo sapiens proceeded to colonize the continents, arriving in Eurasia 125,000--60,000 years ago,[8][9] Australia around 40,000 years ago, the Americas around 15,000 years ago, and remote islands such as Hawaii, Easter Island, Madagascar, and New Zealand between the years AD 300 and 1280.[10][11] Humans began to practice sedentary agriculture about 12,000 years ago, domesticating plants and animals which allowed for the growth of civilization. Humans subsequently established various forms of government, religion, and culture around the world, unifying people within a region and leading to the development of states and empires. The rapid advancement of scientific and medical understanding in the 19th and 20th centuries led to the development of fuel-driven technologies and improved health, causing the human population to rise exponentially. With individuals widespread in every continent except Antarctica, humans are a cosmopolitan species. By 2012 the global human population was estimated to be around 7 billion.

Well he could almost taste the money
But he was sitting in a den of thieves
Looking for the great awakening
Trying to find a way to leave
But that's when he got religion
And the light went on inside
He said somebody up there likes me
Now he's working for the holy guide
He got drunk but he don't remember
That he'd been drinking in a bar downtown
When he thought he heard a choir of angels
Singing in the Tiki Lounge
And that's when he got religion
From no salesman on TV
Just a tap on the shoulder in the parking lot
He still drinks but he does believe
Religion, you do the best you can
We all make the same mistakes
We're gonna wind up with the man
Religion, oh you do the best you can
We all make the same mistakes
We're gonna wind up with the man
She was silent as he paid her
But the thanks she got was next to none

She felt the presence of someone
And that's when she got religion

Then he said, "I'm going out"

You are in me...
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm loving you.
You're loving me.
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm touching you.
You're touching me...
Intoxicated with your breath.
My eyes close,
I am a mess.
Starving and cold and I need your love...
You keep me real.
You lift me up.
Prayer soft,
I am in love.
Devotee of your immortal love.
Brutal truth.
It is profound.
Can you hear the sound,
of my breath?
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm loving you.
You're loving me.
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm touching you.

Door to door, Selling me your religion
Confronting me like a fucking zombie
black shirt, white tie, brain washed till you die
fake dream, false hopes, religion is just one big lie

Jehovah's Witness knocking on my door
Jehovah's witness gonna save us all
Jehovah's witness knocking on my door
Jehovah's witness aint gonna save shit!
Stay away, run and hide

Top Ravenous, Religion

I have already seen it all
a thousand times before
gazing into outer space
where the timelines cross
far out and away from here
it pushes its way into the air
still a bit to surreal
but we bring the lies to life
it only exists within our minds
and so man created god
we tried to put it into focus
untill it became all too real
and still there is some kind of need
this idea came to life
still not completely understood
it unites and tears apart
CHORUS:
a man made force in our world
combines the evil and the good
religion is what we call it but isnt understood
it was created to give hope
but its caused so many wars
and it will bring so many more

They are fighting on islands.
They are fighting at sea.
They are fighting for justice.
They are fighting for me.
I'm not a believer.
Thank God for that.
They try to use me as a receiver
for their useless chat.
The root of all evil
is what we have in mind.
I don't know what
they are trying to find.
Maybe the creator of Adam and Eve.
But why in hell must they hate
each others beliefs.
Roots of all evil.
The roots of our minds.
Religion, religion.
One man is for heaven,
the other represents hell.
And they start to fight
when they ring the bell.
Don't think I'm watching
this senseless game.
For me and my soul
they do just the same.
Roots of all evil.
The roots of our minds.
Religion, religion.
Black:
is the collar of the priest and his voice.
Light:
is the force he wants to praise.
Knight:
is the title of the man who does the killing work.
People are ruined
by the collecting man.
And the money finances a plan.
The meaning of his message is to get
you signed on their list of hired minds.
Roots of all evil.
The roots of our minds.
Religion, religion.
Black:
is the collar of the priest and his voice.
Light:
is the force he wants to praise.
Knight:
is the title of the man who does the killing work.
Why can't they be satisfied
with their work with souls?
Why must the money take control?
The priests are all waiting
for the final cut of the universe.
Roots of all evil.
The roots of our minds.

Top George Carlin, Religion

When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league
bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time
champion of false promises and exaggerated claims,
religion. No contest. No contest. Religion. Religion
easily has the greatest bullshit story ever told. Think
about it. Religion has actually convinced people that
there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches
everything you do, every minute of every day. And the
invisible man has a special list of ten things he does
not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten
things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke
and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send
you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and
cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He
always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-
knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!
Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes,
and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about a

Top Mammal, Religion

Well I got a problem now,
You made it mine,
Showing me your weakness,
I assumed that you were stronger.
And it's not the greed that holds us back,
Just the lie, we're inferior
I assumed that we were family,
So I just though I'd mention,
Try to ease a little tension.
The bed I lie in was made by you,
This band of brothers will make it through,
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
I won't imagine pain cause it walks beside me.
And we're turning the screw right now,
We're not there yet but at least we're trying.
I'm not phased by their opinion,
So, just tear the fall back plan,
And scatter it to winds cause we're preparing,
For the Rubicon in the path of Gower.
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
I can feel what's coming.
To know you makes me proud to do this loud, it's over-
rained it,
We'll be whole when the fear has left us,
So just take a path or shout,
Every word we can just completely,
And remember,
This is my religion.

We open up, open up,
Face the glare from the future,
We open up, open up,
Face the glare from the future,
We open up, open up,

To know you makes me proud to do this loud, it's over-

We'll be whole when the fear has left us,
So just take a path or shout,
Every word we can just completely,
And remember,
This is my religion.
This is my religion!
This is my religion!

There’s something inside me
That’s killing me slowly
It’s burning like fire in my head
There’s something in my veins
A beast locked in white chains
The stain of this switchblade is red
Chorus
Lord knows how hard I’ve tried
Lord knows I’ve failed
But I keep on searching my way
Take my soul, Lord, and ease my pain
This is my religion
There’s something above me
It’s something I can’t see
I don’t know why I am so blind
There’s something around me
A light that surrounds me
I’m lost in my own tangled mind
