The psychology of belief: Do we need God to make sense of life?
from The Big Conversation:
What are the psychological roots of faith beliefs? Can we make our own rules for life or are we subject to a higher level of meaning? Can we dispense with religion as a ‘virus of the mind’, or are even atheists fundamentally religious deep down?
Jordan B Peterson and Susan Blackmore debate these questions and more in the first episode of The Big Conversation.
