That's actually explainable by constellations. Many of the earliest stories were told for eons around the fire, looking at stars, and the pictures painted there, that became the earliest myths. Astrotheology is mostly crazy nonsense, but I think that part makes sense.
the logic is more of "well why did things line up this way, and what does that mean?" rather than "how did this happen?". looking at the world in a more spiritual or religious sense is asking about the intentions of the forces that happen rather than the forces happening themselves.
Not even crazy stuff like this. Thunder? Lightning? Fuckin tornados and hurricanes? Then you have the numerous phenomena from the sun and moon like this and others.
Any weather related activity is mind-blowing. Yeah, you're an island nation, so you understand water currents and wind currents. Do you understand WHY it happens though? Without legitimate sciences backing it up, it's pretty easy to see an all powerful being controlling it from the background. Especially when you lack the capability of finding out what the fuck is going on
Plus, you recognize that religion in modern times should be treated as history, it's all it is. No one needs religion to explain anything. Science helps us find true transparency and sense in the world, not telling lies from child abusers that were told thousands of years ago...
Believe in whatever thingy you want to believe in, but you should only be allowed to do so as long as you're not harming other people by doing so. And religion especially has no place whatsoever in politics. FFS
Imagine we die, and god’s like ”The devil literally took the form of the sun, and you still thought religion was bs? Yeah, off to hell you go. This is on you.“
I heared a neuroscientifical theory that said interconnections in ancient human brains could have been wired differently and they might have actually heared voices from regions of their brains that are now unconcious (except for some people that have brain issues).
Imagine experiencing fear for your life and you can hear your own brain think like another person who isn't there. It must be some kind of god.
