Description
Summary:Religions, religious beliefs, and other religious components had and have various functions. This approach is commonly shared in the current study of religion. The point of debate lies in the status of that usufulness. The domain approach points out that religious usufulness is random and secondary, and religious beliefs are explained as by-product of other adaptations, specifically cognition. However, it is worth considering an approach that interprets religious components as adaptations. In that paper I discuss religious components as cultural phenomena that can fit criteria of biological adaptation.
