Hi. This of course is not a new idea. But it was brought home to me when I started reading an old book (The Golden Bough by J.G. Frazer).
I am putting it in my own words here but it basically adds up to this:
Science took over from Magic. Both science and magic are related in that they both say: If I do this, then this will happen. This happens because I did that. I can prove it. There are rules.
Religion , on the other hand, says that it doesn't matter what I do because God decides at all times. God can change the rules and break them as He wants.
comments welcome.
