Excerpt from The Origin of Supernatural Conceptions and Development of Religions
The knowledge of the advent of man and his sta tus in the universe wherein he found himself prior to the attainment of modern science, was derived from traditionary legends evolved from the vivid imagi nations oi the human brain attempting to interpret the history of his creation, and the purpose of his existence. It is apparent that those legends have a fictitious origin, although they were assumed to be divine revelations. There is a tendency in the hu man mind to retain its early impressions with great tenacity; and it is difficult, and often impossible, to unlearn the most illogical and preposterous falla cies that men have been taught as truths in their earlier life while they seize with avidity every pre tension to reveal a future life they have learned to believe in, but of which no man has any knowl edge or comprehension, except from the fabulous traditions of unknown writers.
