...but not in the light of new, actual scientific discoveries. If a &quot;thought&quot; about the nature of consciousness, morals and behaviour comes from a time before anyone knew anything about the brain, it is overwhelmingly likely to be now invalid. Even if its conclusion remains a possibility, because its method and process were made prior to a scientific understanding of the brain, it is not a valid argument. It&#039;s like trying to apply geocentric equations to work out where Jupiter is today - even if the answer turns out to be right, the process is still wrong.

If she is interested to find out the reasons and causes of behaviour, instead of relying on centuries-old guesswork why doesn&#039;t Lucy discard all that and use only what we know. Oh, it&#039;s because that would involve getting rid of the only thing that religion actually bases itself on.|IP-ADDRESS|10.0.119.228, 217.36.222.79, 10.37.37.203|MODERATIONFLAG|
