I was expecting some links on it, since no, I don't really know shit about the laws that monkeys or apes apparently have.

Educate yourself it doesnt require a "link" to basically have any remote knowledge of great ape behavior. Watch animal planet for 15 minutes.

The definitions from Princeton I've used don't match up with your definitions.

Correct you used a half assed dictionary with a vague and all encompassing definition. Ignoring the manner in which you yourself provided describing the role of religion. Kinda hard to argue semantics when you defined in the EXACT manner that i have used it.

Morality is not instinctual, as you have said many times. If morality was instinctual it would be unchanging and unlearned. There wouldn't be an argument.

Why do you repeatedly create straw man arguments ignoring whats actually said. I never fucking said morality=instinct. What exactly is your malfunction? Can you not fucking read? Ive repeated myself probably a dozen times and yet you still repeat the same bullshit over and over. In how many ways and how many times do i have to explain it before you read it?

I didn't use Wikipeida, even though it's the only source I've found that has some agreement to your argument. You left out how half the Wikipedia article is about how it's unclear if animism can be considered a religion since it is present in all religions. The man who coined the phrase animism says it was the minimum of religion

Umm the quotes from the man you used are from wikipedia...idiot. The quotes i have given are from the same person you quoted to demonstrate the point. From the same article in fact.The man who coined the phrase "animism" considered all religions animistic. He is also the person quoted saying "Does not fit the traditional western definition of the word". The same man also contradicts your entire premise of religion being an integral part of society itself. But i dont actually expect you to read and understand the stuff you cut/paste from.

The list of six things was based on religion after civilization had taken place.

You defined religion... The manner in which you used that word EXACTLY matches the manner in which i have used it. And in which merriam-webster defines it. And the manner in which pretty much anyone would think the word implies. I know its common practice for retards to hide behind semantics once their arguement falls apart but jesus christ. YOU DEFINED ITS USAGE IN THIS VERY THREAD.
Also kind of hard to claim you didnt use ask.com/wikipedia since you cited it as a source for your previous quotes. Thats an awesome neo-pagan website tho.
