The answer is both no and yes Animism is a naive intuitive (6th) sense that the Universe is Conscious in the primitive psyche there is no concept of an actual godhead everything is sensed as having spirit, stones, bones, grass, trees..... Animism is the original spiritual state of the Stone Age psyche we lived then in innocent symbiosis in Mother Nature's Garden which She jealously protects via the Natural Laws of Cause and Effect which is based of the territorial imperative of non-trespass not just of hunting boundaries but also non-invasive personal space our entire existence during that vast period of human development depended on the luck of the hunt and intense family cooperation where we learned through the trials and errors of survival that good cause (non-trespass) produced good effect and vise verse and so we lived as in harmony with an instinctive grasp of the Godhead as Adam and Eve innocent and pure in the Witnessing Eye of a Conscious Universe so in our Natural Infant State of Consciousness before we ate of the tree of pseudo-intellectual (childish) argument if we accept Universal Consciousness as God then the Spirit of the Godhead has always been real to us from the very beginning not an invention Shamanism replaced Animist during the Bronze Age Shamanism is partly inspirational and partly analytical When man was ejected from the Garden and forced to till the soil all of existence during that period of human development depended on the luck of the weather rain, wind, snow, ice, drought were at the whim of the Weather Gods our natural innocent infant reliance on Mother Nature had to be replaced by the morality of a sound work ethic sacrifices and offerings needed to be made to the Weather Gods gifted psychic mediums were required to speak to dead ancestors who could then intercede with the Weather Gods and bring rain and so God remained real to the Shaman yet gradually became an invention to the common man it is upon this prehistoric base morphing tribal totems mythological pantheist and monotheist theologies that Major Catholic Scriptures evolved with sectarian Gods favoring this or that society and so the idea of God became almost entirely an invention to be manipulated by men and women who became entirely left brain via endless study of written testaments entirely lost touch with their intuitive base and became spiritually corrupt tickets to heaven were sold to the highest bidder and is the reason why the Protestant Revolution had to happen where atheism came into being the good news is the wheel of fortune keeps turning spirituality is making a come-back hundreds of millions are experiencing Cosmic Consciousness from both an intuitive and scientific (analytic) perspective our idea of the Godhead is no longer naive both sides of our brain are becoming balanced and respectful towards each other and so the answer to whether God is an invention is both yes and no | ||||
