Comment on Without the precursor of Spirituality and Religion, there can be no morality.
Arkouda@lemmy.ca 1 week agoIf 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.

First of your twisting my words i never said it were true
Humans are dumb as fuck. They see patterns where there is none and make up reasons just to make the world make sense. Like I keep repeating your arguing coronation equestrian causation this is simply not true.
While you seemed on the level you tipped your hand I guess were done here

I sincerely do not believe you understand English well enough to understand what I am saying, and I do not have the ability to explain it any better than I already have.
If you are hung up on the whole “God” thing, know it isn’t about that.

Morality is nothing more than a social construct. For a society to exist there needs to be common rules
Spirituality haz nothing to do with that
Is that clear enough for you

I agree, morality is a social construct. It is a product of large groups of humans needing a unified set of common rules to get along.
Historically, 100% of the time according to the evidence we have available on all documented groups of humans, this was done with spirituality and religion up until modern times.
Is that clear enough for you?
