Show me one group of people coming from any culture that didn't believe in gods of their area. When many cultures around the world have the same basic look of what we only have read about or watched movies or tvs shows about. When they have so many similarities, so many different cultures, then we can believe at one time anything from any mythology, folklore,fables and fairy tales once existed. Literature of these are considered the highest level of education. How is wind made, we don't see it. Sometimes we feel it and hear it, but we know it's there. It's ok to believe in something, it's when certain people feel everyone should be like them is the problem. Again variety is the key of a healthy brain.

@IceManBNice420 -- I didn't say anything at all about the history of belief or how these things were generated, did I? I merely gave my reaction to those who manage these solid beliefs in the imaginary today. We all use beliefs in mundane issues to permit us to navigate through each day, but those mundane beliefs are transient and easily cast aside when evidence to the contrary arises.

The beliefs that become fixed in spite of the evidence are what we're talking about here and it doesn't matter whether there is an organized dogma to be followed or whether it is enforced. Black cats and cracks in sidewalks being just a couple of examples. Please, tell me about that 'key of a healthy brain,' it sounds interesting.

@evidentialist Believing in something, and having it run your life are two separate issues. Only those people who have a blurry line between the two are the ones to worry about. Or just to stay away from them.

@IceManBNice420 -- Oh so wrong.
