It is said we are created to have a God. When we don't know him, we make other things our God. Career, aquisition of things, people, relationships, another person, sport, substances.
What you invest time in, you worship. [/QUOTE]Too true, too true
It is actually mostly my left-wing friends who suggest that the abolishing of religion is promoted by capitalism to make people unhappy, so they consume more in a kind of chronic depression buy. [/QUOTE]True. Consumerist advertising constantly emphasises our "need" for various products.
