Why do white people invent new religions so frequently?
>>
well, you know, we invented 99% of everything so naturally this applies to religion too
>>
Gotta fill the void of God somehow

Because modals are systems which act as tools we can use to actualize a certain reality, and religons are modals we use to actualize a spiritual one.
>>
Some times people get a glimpse of a greater reality in a way or another, so naturally they pursue it because they wanna go to heaven.
>>
>>2928739
Because their religion was destroyed when Christianity took over Northern Europe so they don't want to be Christians since the Catholics were dicks to them and they don't have a religion to fall back on since most of their pagan faiths sites and documents were destroyed. The only documents left of white religion were in Iceland called the Edda and the Poetic Edda. So Icelanders can be happy with that I suppose, but for the rest of whites, their religion was completely destroyed so they'd have to adopt the Icelandic version of Asatru (Norse Paganism). Let's be honest though, paganism is shit anyway, but that still leaves a whole race feeling a bit lost and searching.

White people are subject to both the plague and the curse of high intellect - a characteristic not frequently observed in other populations. Are you familiar with the Sa'ive Effect? It's an old Latin observation which seeks to explain why so many geniuses end up killing themselves. You come to a point in your thinking where you realize there is absolutely no reason for anything. Religion is our way of dealing with this void.

Can you link about the sa`ive effect? I couldn`t find anything on google.

Are you implying Aisians don't come up with a fuck load of new religions too?

Information is much more widely available now and communities are less close knit, Christianity is spiritually dead for a lot of people.

Same reason we invent new languages despite having 200 already: shits and giggles.

>>2928739
The modern world and globalisation has destroyed identity and Westerners have been left uprooted without any sense of purpose or higher meaning in life. More and more people are realising that consumerism is a false remedy.

The only way to fix this is to get back to our roots, rediscover the true gods of our ancestors and form new organic, tribal cultures to fulfill our quest for belonging.

False. Blacks like to think they invent things because their number 1 achievement is hip hop, whereas in reality they rely on whites
>>

I don't understand why american blacks claim hip fucking hop as their greatest achievement when they started almost every other modern musical genre

Because they have a compulsion towards rituals but are too high and mighty in their own opinion to follow any pre-existing ''primitive'' creed.

It's why shit like veganims and yoga is so popular among westerners, women in particular; it's all ritual and no conviction.
>>
Because everyone thinks they're special and have a better understanding of the universe than anyone else and don't want to learn from anyone else.

I have very little respect for disorganized religion. If you're going to be religious, pick a real one, please, and dedicate yourself to actually learning it.

All religions are reflections of internal human psychology. The existential dread of death and all.

Do you even Jung?

The major faiths lose their resonance because they require some pretty long leaps of logic. Meanwhile, believing in magical crystals, spells and sacred gongs and whatever is a bit easier to swallow, it's more physical. It's basically modern reinventions of shamanism, our (humans) earliest religious beliefs.

It's not only white people though, you're just a white ignoramus.

Also Hare Krishna or Falun Gong for other major example.
