That's what I'm saying. We all have these problems, people cope with them differently. Some people fill that hole with religion "hurr durr, I'm a Catholic, others fill it withs "hurr durr, I'm an Oilers fan" and others fill it with psychiatric labels "Hurr durr I'm an autistic bipolar type II"
Different sides of the same coin.
- mcphage 2y agoI agree with this, but I wouldn’t call it a “god shaped hole” any more than I’d call it an “oilers shaped hole”.
- Teever 2y agoI would, because the thing that used to primarily fill this hole was religion, and thats the hole people are trying to stuff. I'm not religious btw, this is just what I see.
- mcphage 2y ago> the thing that used to primarily fill this hole was religion, and thats the hole people are trying to stuff Calling it "a hole" even, is stretching the metaphor too far. People have needs, and religion has often been used to fill that need, as has nationalism, and occupations, and any other thing. But there isn't a single "hole", and that hole doesn't have a "shape". There's just people who have needs, and ways people have tried to fulfill those needs.
