All the major world religions all seem to originate in a very narrow band across the senti, thetop of africa. They all start ed about the same time, om that period, two to three thousand years ago. And what they haven't really noticed is actually occurs in this extremely narrow it's only 12 degrees of latitude in that narrow band. The characteristic of that band is that it's the area that minimizes disease load, pathagan load.
Instead of debunking religious beliefs, what if we investigated where religion comes from, and why it’s virtually universal across human cultures? Anthropologist and “How Religion Evolved And Why It Endures” author Robin Dunbar joins Adam to discuss the origins of religion. He describes how touch, laughter, and song bonded people together, and the social role of religious rituals such as sin-eating. You can purchase Robin’s book here: http://factuallypod.com/books
