>> When you say "supposed to affect your sentiment" what do you mean? It's supposed to make you feel closer to something which exists beyond reality. For example - it appeals to your fear of death, and gives you a set of explanations that make it easier to accept that fact instead of facing it. >> Do you have a source from which I can do some reading on this? Read any book concerning the history of western civilization.

  > It's supposed to make you feel closer to something which exists beyond reality. I'd say "beyond the natural" rather than "beyond reality". That isn't really an issue if it pertains to truth. > For example - it appeals to your fear of death, and gives you a set of explanations that make it easier to accept that fact instead of facing it. I'm not sure I'm understanding your example. What does it mean to "accept that fact instead of facing it"? Do you mean to say "it gives you hope of an after life instead of facing the fact that when your dead, that's it"? > Read any book concerning the history of western civilization. Haha, how does "How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization" by Thomas E. Woods sound? ;)
