Is religion like a horse drawn vehicle, doggedly trudging along, refusing to update its machinery?
Truth and timelessness never need to be updated They are not trendy. Think about it a little bit. A stone is a stone, whether it be now or 4 billion years ago
Exactly. Religion is always against social progress and new ideas, always. It is inherently reactionary and prone to decay. One can only reform it so far until the Zeitgeist requires a religion to be discarded due to modernity.
no, I don't think so. The teachings in the Bible, whether you believe in God or not, are not subject to the changing tides of society.
Not the Abrahamic religions. The God Yahweh wrote the scripture that these religions evolved from from His advanced scientific knowledge for them to follow for eternity. They are still more advance today then we realize because of us unintentionally falsely interpreting the true meaning of this scripture and giving it the non-scientific religious translation that we still use today and think is out dated but in reality it is us who are still out dated and not the mentioned scripture..
Yeah, and we're all stepping in the horse poop.
