A nice weekend to everyone!
Nice graph; that gives a refreshing perspective on religion
as a human evolution of cultural behavior and norms, similar to say
how language has a nice tree going back in time.
Indeed. It seems plausible that religions are local maxima of
cooperation strategies. In recent History (compared to the time
scale of this graph), attempts to engineer new cooperation
strategies require the removal of existing religions. This was the
case in both the communist revolutions (Bolshevik and Maoist) and
the enlightenment revolutions (American and French). But naturally
evolved religions are highly-adapted, resilient organisms.
Very nice graph. I appreciate the remark below it, which asks for some
the grains of salt.
I am not sure we can eliminate a religion, but we can substitute it by
another (better or worst) religion.
"cooperation strategies" needs some goal/sense, for which the
cooperation makes sense, and such goal refer to some implicit or
explicit religion or reality conception, I think.
Nice to see buddhism and taoism there, but where is (strong) atheism/
materialism? Hmm.... :)
