People are absolutely terrified of dying and having no answer to the unknown that lies beyond being alive. So humans have made up many stories with “answers” as cope that make them and their kin feel better.

Of course those stories and “answers” were all weaponized by the sociopath humans to control populations / tax / wage war / kill / etc.

Just happy I’ve been able to see through all of it. Religion is one of the creepiest mental prisons I’ve ever seen. Antithesis of freedom and critical thought.

I’m so glad I broke out of it

Respect dood its a very hard one to break out of.

I was raised by atheists but found their position to be as weird and as extreme as religious people.

What is so hard about saying “I don’t know.”?

The mind attempts to predict and control outcomes. This leads to anxiety and fear when faced with true uncertainty (i.e. death). So people manufacture false stories and answers out of thin air.
