Mankind, just look at our history


Look, at the behaviour of mankind throughout history.

Is our human behaviour, historically, indicative of 'something', about us which we innately can feel is true, even while we have no tangible evidence, of what many of us can feel ???

It is a fact, that for all of recorded human history [as an expression of man's desire to 'commune' with the 'gods'], man has built temples.

And on a purely psycho-logical level, WHY is that?

And to all of you 'rationalists' and 'scientists' out there!,
....even if you are an atheist,
....doesn't that behaviour say something about us [mankind] ?



MANKIND'S FASCINATION WITH BUILDING TEMPLES [a house, for a 'god', to dwell in]...

Can i suggest, that, i believe that man has always been 'moved' to build temples, in recognition of an 'internal' need, to alleviate his perceived separation, from that which gives him life.

Can i suggest, that, mankind has always built temples, to symbolically represent a physical, tangible 'place', where his 'god' abides, being a symbolic representation of the 'felt' truth about 'reality', about himself?

And as a futile attempt by man, to bring the (a) spiritual 'God' into his tangible, physical world?

Can i suggest, that mankind's compulsive behaviour in this regard, flows from an inner need, a subconscious need? [within physical man], to acknowledge another 'reality' which [indeed] many of us sense,
....i.e the existence of a [spiritual] God.



Or, is mankind's inclination to 'temple building' a reflection of a flaw in our psyche ?


As a person 'embedded' within, and engrossed by this modern age, are you certain that the subconscious 'intuitions' of many [of your fellow humans], are wrong ?

Is a particular innate knowledge 'wrong', when that knowledge is not apparent within the tangible world, and when it is not shared by the majority of mankind ?
