Thanks, but I don’t necessarily mean religion, though that can be a part of it. SImply I am referring to meaning creation (which religion is downstream of). We seem to be incapable of stoping “ideas” in the Humean sense (Hume has a good discourse on this, In the Human mind things are separated into “sensations” and “Ideas”, sensations are the stimuli outside of us, and the ideas are the relationships mentally we form between sensations, abstractions and the like, like the idea of good, or hell, even language itself, things that are not real but we create through the relationship of stimuli). It is a necessary part of the Human being. Anything that is meaningful to us. Basic ontological shit. But keeping them simple and not trying to craft some formula. Being aware of their abstractness. “Killing this animal is good and I will eat it”, not wondering if the abstract idea of “killing” is good. “Good” being predominantly contextual and closer related to those particular contextual stimuli. rather than creating systems of universalized meaning creation.
