The European Union has recently allocated €2 million ($3million) to a project that aims to research and explain religion. I think it’s something that people need in order cope with the inevitable death that comes at some point and the fact that they can’t accept not existing anymore. But then again, I’m guessing they’re looking for something a bit more complicated than my answer.
“Explaining Religion”, as the project is known, is the largest-ever scientific study of the subject. It began last September, will run for three years, and involves scholars from 14 universities and a range of disciplines from psychology to economics. And it is merely the latest manifestation of a growing tendency for science to poke its nose into the God business.
