The Evolutionary Remnant of Organized Religion
Abstract This paper briefly explores the idea that organized religion, in its present form, can be viewed as a remnant or byproduct of the evolutionary progression from brain-based survival mechanisms to consciousness, intelligence, and the complex handling of information. The discussion focuses on how religion once played a central role in human development but is increasingly being recontextualized in light of modern cognitive, informational, and ethical evolution.
