This and that. Taoism, RAW, filmmakers, musicians, me, etc.

Some socialist critique of late stage capitalism.

Rushed answer, but still.
They were smaller tribal that looked to authority figures that knew what they were doing. Wealth was fertile land and strong healthy people working together. The technology unlocked a whole host of inevitable curses and conveniences. Their hunters beat their way to power and passed laws, their fireside stories turned to religions, the rare metals used as tools became valuable. and it all spiraled out of control, Pandora's box style, only it wasn't a woman's fault.

We changed our minds, our conduct. We can change it again. We're smarter now. Trouble is, the greedy sociopaths still control us all.

Thank you. Still feels very deistic to me. And I still don't see how my statement "Because there is no god. And if there is, it doesn't matter." is misplaced. Because:

> "If such a transitive deity exists, how can you extrapolate its psychology, motivations, and teleos to the point where you can gather useful moral and ethical behavior?". There's no obligation for God to adhere to human standards of pleasure or displeasure or adherence between "what it says, thinks, and does".
This seems to fit it.

I approach theologies from a social-historical needs perspective, and religions have and continue to have a very bad effect on the human mind.
