It's been interesting....
....to see how Zoners view themselves and their connections with the Universe. Everyone has a different way of coping. When looking at the wide variation of practisces here, I can see why the greeks had their Gods, and the forest tribes had their effigies and shamans.
Humans are different than animals in that we seem to be superstitious enough to honor or worship something. I wonder where that comes from.
Genetic memory?
I don't think the cavemen were superstitious.
Perhaps their brains weren't developed enough to even think such thoughts.
