>do you honestly think its coincidenceIt's possible, or, its also possible that human beings come up with similar predictions about things, because, like I said, human beings want to understand the world.

>every human whos not retarded wont live like an animalOf course not, we need to cooperate in a society to survive, just like bees, dolphins, wolves, and every other animal that can work together without a God.
>you think the highest human ability is to memorize vocabulary and learn some mathHumans are a lot more capable than that, and it is because of our brain, and all of the accumulated knowledge acquired by our ancestors.
