Well there is a thing called a father to help guide the youngins through life...get them started on the right track...and help em stay on it.
An if that ain't enugh there is a belief in God to help you with your existential struggle...bad things happen when you kill God and he is no longer there to help guide you...
Secular Rationalism is all well and good when tempered with a Spiritual belief to help maintain balance. when that spiritual belief is denigrated and denied an internal void appears as suddenly 50000 years of mans moral foundation disappears... and when left to his own devices he can be quiet creative in how depraved he can be...
People just do not understand what they are dealing with and the consequences of their actions. Stability in the personality disappears...and it turns into a shrieking horror show...right out of Dante's Inferno.
Jung is the great co/founder of writing Secular empirical equations about the mans psyche and spiritual/religious nature which is known as psychology..without his explorations into the deep man would still be subject to believing in magic..and superstition. So when one mentions God it is not promotion religion or a particular belief. It is an empirical truth about mans nature.
The empirical bottom line is that mans beliefs in a deity and precepts are based upon over 50000 years of collective memory..mans history and when you seek to deny those beliefs.. you destroy the foundations of mans consciousness and humanity where you might as well just be an unconscious animal in the jungle.
