Religion is based in science.

Back in the old days, usually people would do batshit insane things to prove shit like the earth being round, whereas nowadays we can use satelites. People would do complex mathematical equations to discern the curvature of the earth.

Who's to say this can't apply to religion?

Religion even includes some things that you can see in other religions. Most religions have a great flood type scenario, which means it either happened or was proven and added into religious texts. Many religions also have people living a lot longer then they do now, which could genuinely have been the case before a great flood type scenario wherein the quality of life drastically decreased due to lack of supplies/enviornmental changes.

That last one is a bit more disprovable with fossil evidence, but is still interesting to think about. Religion is a fascinating subject with a lot of facets to it.
 
It's interesting to think about the Nephilim in biblical religion. They might have been possible in the past when oxygen levels were higher, resulting in creatures being bigger.

That's the word I was looking for!!

But yeah, very interesting. Honestly love digging into what made people think what. Was it fossil evidence, paintings, or actual sightings passed through word until written language?
 
Perhaps the calendars had shorter months, which contributed to the impression that people lived longer. But I agree with you, religion is fascinating.
It is! Honestly love religion so much. I'd study it if it was a good career option.
 
Yes, the religious books document stuff from ancient times but a lot of it is exaggeration and stuff. This is because people just told stories and didn’t really write things down, so it was game of telephone over the millennia.
 
There's no God, accept it.

I don't get how someone can't believe in evolution. It's the main reason I'm atheist
I personally still don't know what I believe in, but evolution is definetly real either way. I do believe in some sort of higher entity however.

It has. Here’s a playlist I made that contains some good video resources:

Even if it's unlikely that a divinity exists, I still cannot understand how the universe originated itself from nothing, emptiness.

There’s no God because evolution can explains everything in a way I can understand so I chose to put faith in modern science* Either you believe nothing exploded and creatures mutated over billions of years into us or nothing was created by something or matter is eternal and was divinely organized.
 
Evolution is obviously true and proven. And if you don't see how similar humans are to other apes or monkeys, then I can't help you.

And if there's a God, then he's a piece of shit ngl. No good God would do shit like this.
Clearly you haven’t read the Bible. All God does is kill kill kill! He killed his own son and the entire world population in wrath! He’s done far worse things than whatever you are referring to! Your frat boy attitude shows you need to do a little more research.

Honestly though.

Like, god is almost never portrayed as a cool person. You're always supposed to revere them for some reason or another.

God hates all foids and workers of iniquity! That’s almost 100% of the world population as God lists around 600 different moral laws!

There are also tons of extinct animals that were alive back in those days. Some of them probably being incredibly big, and even more so, compared to the short malnourished humans of back then.

Religion is mostly speculation and the way science (knowledge) evolves means that if it's older it's usually wrong (think of the miasma hypothesis). Plus, anything outside of nature can be outright dismissed as we have no evidence that anything outside of nature exists.

What is the miasma hypothesis? Your take makes sense btw! Very cool.

One at least partial explanation for this is that many religions are derivatives of each other. For example, Christianity is just a derivative of Judaism and the Roman gods were basically just renamed Greek gods. In addition, Christianity absorbed various pagan traditions (e.g., Yule turning into Christmas) so such phenomena might contribute to overlap between faiths as well.

Yeah, I tried to use examples that were very common rather then ones specific to that religion.
