Acting in the name of religion
Is the religion a necesity, or a human an invention to explain the world? We know that the ancient civilitations used to have people for explaining the sourronding and hostile natural wild world. Facts are stubborn. Many people don't believe in religion because of the behaviour of elders and hierarchs but others have a strong necesity to believe. Why?
Humans are gregarious animals. This is our natural form of survival in that hostile surrounding. The feeling of belonging to a group, family and beliefs, differentiate each group of people from other ones. Thus, belief is an important part of our feelings. These beliefs were developed by elders and hierarchs when we started the history. As far as I know eagerness for the divine is different from religion. The first is a personal choice the second is a social conditioning. That is the point. We are conditioned not only by the "holy text" alone but also the cultural traditions that don't help people to have free opinions. So we are prisioners of a cultural mold and we need to make an effort to surpass that mold. Today we have the difficulty of confrontation between religions and cultures. The main problem is that some religions are so imposing that all aspects of life are regulated. From policy to sexual behaviour and in the European cultural context it is not acceptable because in occidental culture we have had many revolutions to be free from all such ancient traditions that obstruct scientific knowledge and the happines of the people.
The history of the "book religions" are plenty of examples that explain us how the violence has been part in all historic acts of the "true in name of God" through of making coincide the God will with the power will.In the VITh Century, christians burnt the Alexandria Library and killed to a famous philosopher woman because Library books didn't coincide with the Holy Book, and women were less than men. Fortunatly today this doesn't happen in Europe. However women are killed in muslim countries according with the "Sharia". A traditional law in muslim countries. Women doesn't have rights in these countries. When women will be free in these closed societies?
Cruelty to animals
Public Morality
The rules of behavior in Europa are changing continuosly. From I was born the changes have had very deeply. I born in the middle of the XX Century. Things have been changing as quickly that thinking and consideranding thorougly I think that tecnological and sciencifics changes have been conditioning the behaviour of people. How could a woman get in a motocycle in 60 or 70Th without change fashion and behaviour model?
