Psychological Blockade of the Human Brain
I wasnt sure where to put this but i guess religion.... yea.... should be the right place
The psychological blockade of the human brain
By Roeland Schoppers
Before you read my theory you have to understand that I mean no offence to any religion, or any religious people. I do not hate people that believe in God and I’m not trying to convert them to my ideas. I just want to share my opinion and let others think about this.
I think about a lot of things myself and make theories but I want to write them down now and share them with others.
Here follows the theory:
The human brain has a blockade that limits our thinking. Mankind wants to be able to put everything in to an earthly perspective. We always want to be able to compare things to what we already experienced, something that we can see, feel, hear, something that we already understand. Since the beginning of times we have had this psychological blockade, the border got extended the further we evolved. We always want to explain things, and if we cannot put into an earthly perspective we cannot understand a phenomenon and think of an earthly explanation.
If we look back to the Greeks or the old Vikings, they had many gods that explained phenomenon that they could not put into a earthly perspective. For instance both cultures did not understand the phenomenon lightning. They did not know electricity yet and they saw the thunder from the sky. They tried to compare it to something that they already knew of and already understood. Failing in this they made an earthly explanation for it. There is something coming from the sky, something has to be made by somebody. Because everything we know off has been made by somebody. So they explained it by thinking up a God for it. This God would make the lightning and his reason to cast it down to Earth would be that he was angry at us. This is an explanation they could understand. The Greeks called the god Zeus and the Viking Odin. Both explained the same phenomenon, one both cultures didn’t understand yet. The further the human race progressed the further the border of the psychological blockade was extended. In time we understood what electricity was and we looked up to the sky and certain people thought, no, maybe there is another explanation to this phenomenon. They researched it and found out that it was created by nature. Understanding what electricity is and what lightning is we extended our border and didn’t need Zeus or Odin as a God anymore.
As time progressed a lot of these phenomenon’s were explained and the blockade was lifted further.
Now we had come so far that we had explained a lot of phenomenon’s that we did no longer need all that many Gods. We could make it a lot easier by explaining the remaining unknown phenomenon’s with one God.
Lets us go back, back so far in time, to the very end. All there was in this universe was a mass. Now we can understand that there is this mass, but where did it come from. How did it get there, this we cannot understand. Cause we haven’t experienced that something has been made by nobody. That it just exists, we cannot accept that we cannot explain a phenomenon. So we think of an explanation. Somebody has to have created this mass, we think of a big all powerful human that has created this mass and make him God.
Just like with Death. We see Death all around us but we cannot explain it. What happens after we die we do not know. We cannot explain. So we also explain this by God.
Now you say that you understand that all the Gods of the passed were silly. And that this God we talk of now really exists. Cause how else have we been made. Now I can say “we have been made, I don’t know how, in time we might learn, we cannot explain this so we have to just accept that fact” but most cannot live with that. Let me put it in an earthly perspective then. We both are Greek citizens. I tell you that the Lightning in the sky isn’t made by a God. It just exists, I don’t know how it is being made yet, but in time we might know. We just have to accept this. Then you say “no, its not true, God does it”
In short, the human brain cannot live with something that is unexplained. We have a psychological blockade that stops us from not being able to explain a phenomenon. So we explain it with something that is within the reach of our understanding. Within the borders of the blockade. So we think up an explanation.
My opinion:
I do not believe in God. I think that some things in life are there, I cannot explain them, in time we might be able to explain it. But till then I will just have to live with it. I will just have to wait till I can lift the blockade and can understand this phenomenon.
