Firstly - Adult discussion only please
Following the program last night with atheists asking questions of the chief rabbi, I have a question to put forward.
Over all of known history isolated civilisations have come up with a different answer to the big questions they could not answer, resulting in many differing belief systems. This seems to stem from the need for most humans to:
Believe that life has a higher purpose
Believe that there is something after death
Explain things which they cannot understand
My question is fundamentaly what makes the faithful believe their answers have more merit than the answers of other cultures?
