Hi All,
There is a great movie, "The invention of lying" starring Ricky Gervais (who also is one of the writers)
The movie presents an amazing insight about how religion was invented...
The movie might make some theists angry, But I'd really love to hear Theist who saw that movie give their word about it.
The movie in a nut shell presents a world where everyone must say the truth.. they cannot say anything else, excluding one man.
In a moment of weakness, when he's mother is dying and fearing death, he invents the after life concept and it roles further from there..
I Think the movie suggests a very understandable idea of why religion was invented and how it got to be the problematic thing it is now.
Regards
