  Not really your arguing unless I’m misunderstanding you your basically arguing coronation = causation

  We are now in a time where spirituality is not built in (terms and conditions apply) but morality still exist.

  Hell I’d argue in this day and age societal spirituality is harmful to morality

    We are in a time now where morality does not require spirituality or religion. My point is that it was required to get our species to the point we are at now by unifying a “moral code”, and all evidence we have supports that idea.

    I am not arguing for religion or spirituality in the modern age, I am saying it served a purpose.

      Again causality vs coronation

      There is nothing to say if by some quirk of faight (yeh i know what I’m saying but roll with it) something akin to the scientific method was the norm in place of i dunno there for God. We would still come up with societal norms or morality.

        If that were true, why has no documented civilization or precivilization existed without an element of spirituality or religion in their history?

        The point is Spirituality came first, and based on evidence, was needed for humans to form groups larger than a small family unit as a way to unify “morals”.

        “What if we had science instead” is a moot point because we have Science now and proved early humans wrong.
