I felt that Feuerbach's approach in explaining why religion is used a a sort of projection of what an individual sees within themselves is very true because many people want to see things there way, what they can see makes them define whats real and if not physically seen than it must not exists and everyone is wrong. As for Hegel, he says there's an ultimate being and that every other mick/mach religion only discovers and progresses towards the christian faith, a sort of universal rationality, examining objects of reality. In my opinion, maybe things intangible may not need an explanation. We are driven only by the capacity of our minds and everything physical follows therefore, individuals who believe that love, thought and everything that makes us human shouldn't feel like its non-existent instead to see it's everywhere just not in plain sight. I think it would be pretty awesome if a human had the sight to physically see love, thought and other feelings that's fluid in our mind. Something as complex and brilliant as the mind contains what we cant comprehend. Hope I'm making some sort of sense.

Theoretical Prop
The point that was bought up in class about the question a Buddhist believer would have compared to a Muslim believer realy stood out. The example being asked, "Is there suffering in the world" and the other being "Do you believe there's a God?" Both these questions serve a good purpose to show us that the answer must back up that belief and not be the opposite. In other words the Buddhist and Muslim believer would have to say yes because it would socially be the norm. I question my life just thinking about this, saying one thing and committing to it.This would be considered a Theoretical Prop I believe.
