Thanks for the interesting back story on the con-artist group psychology of cult religions. As an Agnostic, I usually focus on the post-religious German philosophers Kant, Schopenhauer, Hegel, Nietzsche, Liebnitz, et all. I've never been satisfied with any explanation, nor denial of the supernatural. I lean to the theist side of the spectrum for reasons apparent in the mathematics of cosmology.
Culture certainly behaves as a behavioral analogy to Natural Selection. The idea of Resurrection has sold itself over the centuries like nothing else.
Is it normal to follow restorational faiths?
