[QUOTE="Japrim, post: 141258, member: 7558"] Most religion have some standard of behavior based on a philosophy of some kind, usually in regard to physical and spiritual growth. It is all contextualized in terms of basic human psychology and our general nature. ...coping instructions, if you will, an answer to the question of "How do we mortal humans get around our nature to be 'sinners' as to establish a connection to a higher spiritual existence and live a healthier, happier, better balanced and more harmonious, life?" Yes. the literalist interpretation doesn't make a lot of sense. But when you consider it as applicable to spiritual concepts and human nature, it is very clear. That is not to say that good and evil do not exist, or that there isn't something spiritual or metaphysical to it. It is to rather say that it is representative thereof an idea, concept, or phenomena. Try explaining the greater complexity of physics or metaphysics to an ancient ignorant illiterate person. It may work out better to simplify it a bit, accommodate the abstract thought processes with stories, allegory, etc. [/QUOTE]
