Social Construct
The idea that religion is a social construct has been around for awhile. Feuerbach, Marx and Freud I think promoted the idea. Today we have Harris, Dawkins, and Hitchens saying the same type of things. But what is there to say that Atheism isn't a social construct? After all if Atheism says that all our knowledge is just from man's senses, then by definition Atheism is thought up by man.
Nice one
ReplyDeleteI guess the presuppositions are different and that we talk past each other at one level, even though we are talking about the same things.
