spiritual history of man is a record of unbroken continuity but slow development, and follows evolution pretty much. Spiritual and religious elements have a direct link with lower organisms, with the emotions dominant, which is why there's been such little change over the ages. sentiment has never been vanquished in its unending war with reason. mental evolution has followed the vagaries of sensory and nervous modification, which is much more straightforward than the wildly more divergent bodily evolution. the fear of things invisible is at the bottom of all these things though gair, but even superstition can become positive conviction via half truths. all religions stem from the lower cultures though in the end, and the dependence upon symbols is also universal. the lower the intelligence, the more things depend upon the senses alone in simple situations, whereas man has a more complex brain and more complex situations to learn from. but evolution carves out no special place for man gair, it is for these other reasons he is where he is today
