In response to Improbable Perch posted by Migisi:
.
Once we understand how the brain works, we can put most childish superstitions and supernaturalism away.
.
The child that is brought up to play at pretending and to order its life according to the various games of childhood is prepared to move into adult life with a brain set up to continue those ways.
.
So, it seems quite plausible to us that there must be some super being in the sky that watches our every move and knows our every thought. And we are trained to believe that all existence was created by a god to whom we must pay obsequious worship
.
When we know the way the brain works and thinks is a product of society,.we can put away our childish ways and act like adults.
