If religion is a spook, how is it possible that it appeared literally everywhere on the world? I can't name a single ancient civilization without religion or mythology.

Do humans instinctively want an answer for the things they can't comprehend?

Basically every spook appeared independently in various places in the world. Gods, property, kings, whatever you name it.

>Do humans instinctively want an answer for the things they can't comprehend?
Yes, humans are very arrogant creatures and don't like accepting "I dunno" for an answer.
>>
>>1412839
>>1412818
Concepts of what is religion is just unified by the belief that there is a higher being. That itself is not a spook since there is the possibility to exist of something mightier than thou.

Thats the fault on steiner logic, it completely disregards the presence of very real possibilities and "natural" facts unavoidable that are not spooks

For example death, all men must die someday, he cannot spookyfi death even tho its a spooky bussiness.

Nor it can spookify existance although i recall he calls existance and awareness the unique and its spooks its property

>>1412887
He doesn't "spookify" anything. That part of Stirner isn't prescriptive, it's descriptive. If it isn't real, it's already a spook, and all he does is reveal it.

Why and how was music invited or discovered.

Howcome music is so pleasing to listen to?

What purpose does music have, why do we enjoy listening to music, what advantage does it give us?


I would love to hear your opinion on this.

Thanks :)

Why do retarded spaghetti atheists and neo pagans believe that Christianity was a Jewish conspiracy to infiltrate Europe, while in reality the Jews tried to suppress Christianity from day 1 and were even gravely offended when the goyim started to adopt "their" God?

>le imperial overextension meme
>>
It wasn't overextension. The Umayyads just had too many delegates which eventually led to mistrusting them. Delegates from ruling governors to generals, who basically did all the heavy lifting. It was bureaucratic enough to function, but not enough to actually maintain a uniformity of rule (see: different major cities in the empire). Also the family since Muawiyah was led by a lot of lust for power (ironically). By the time of the third fitna, the rulers were obsessed with earthy pleasures and mixed with other factors, let the Abbasids revolt and claim the throne.

Fun fact:

No, the problem is that Protestants think that venerating is innately deifying something and prayer is innately deifying something, because they didn't grow up in ancient or Medieval times when you did these things with *all* your social superiors.

Does anyone else get a strong kitsch vibe when you walk into a Catholic parish? I'm Orthodox, so I'm probably biased, but I was wondering if anyone else feels this way?

Why did monotheism, the most boring of all paradigms of divinity, have to become dominant? Pagan stories and myths are still appealing to us today, whereas the tales of some hairy-assed hebrew getting chastised by a voice from the sky bore us to tears. Even the Christians brought back the equivalent of local gods in the form of saints, starved as they were the spice of life in their conception of the divine. Why the hell did anyone make the switch in the first place?

Monotheism is better at creating a unified, coherent community, and thus at dehumanizing disgusting nonbelievers allowing them to be slaughtered and dominated. Polytheism tends to be more tolerant, and thus does not provide the same urge to conquest
