Why do people think their spirit goes immediately to heaven when they die?

Its because such religious teachings all share one basic idea and that is that some part of us survives the death of the physical body. And of course according to almost every religion, past and present, we somehow live on forever with the ability to see, hear, and think. Yet, how can that even be? You see, our senses, along with out thoughts, are all linked to the workings of our brain. And most importantly, at death, the brain stops working. Our memories,our feeling and senses do not continue to function independently in some mysterious way. They do not survive the destruction of our brain. Even the Bible share that thought, just read Ecclesiastes 9:5.


Why did the patriarchs live so long?

Another answer from our community:Because God had created a world in which conditions were optimized for human beings. For example,-The atmosphere was much denser with a very much higher water-vapor content. This absorbed a lot of the harmful radiation that today strikes the earth and of course, human beings as well. This meant people's DNA was NOT damaged or deteriorated as much as today.-The DNA itself was purer and not corrupted compared with today. It's like breeding purebred animals: the more generations away from the original parents, the more DNA defects, health problems, and weaknesses. Man has degenerated with time, not improved.- Men and women were bigger and stronger physically, and more superior intellectually with bigger brains than today.- There was a higher Oxygen content in the atmosphere. This meant people lived longer and healed faster and had more energy. (This has been proved by hospitals keeping patients in a pressurized and high-Oxygen-content room finding they recover from surgical operations and bad burns where normally they would die .)- You are what you eat: their food was purer and cleaner without the defects and diseases so common today, and chemical sprays etc were not required and were not used and ingested as today.


Wilhelm Schmidt proposed the theory of original monotheism as the origin of religion in the world saying that the earliest religions were based on one distant high God?

It was the Scottish anthropologist Andrew Lang who first proposed the idea of a high god that he believed existed among some of the simplest of contemporary tribes. The noted anthropologist Wilhelm Schmidt accepted and defended that hypothesis, which he no doubt felt was in line with his beliefs as a Catholic priest.Wikipedia explains that primitive monotheism, "the hypothesis of a monotheistic 'Urreligion' from which non-monotheistic religions degenerated, is diametrically opposed to the evolutionary view of religion, another hypothesis which holds that religion progressed from simple forms to complex: first preanimism, then animism, totemism, polytheism and finally monotheism."Schmidt's hypothesis of primitive monotheism was debated during much of the first half of the twentieth century, after which the hypothesis was rejected by academics. Most anthropologists have abandoned all evolutionary schemes like those of Schmidt and Pettazoni, for the historical development of religion, saying that they have also found monotheistic beliefs existing alongside other religious beliefs.
