The quote is not mistaken. It simply states that religion is made up by humans, and science is not. That’s all I think it tries to say and anyone with an understanding of science can see that too. An exception or two where religion and science lined up doesn’t change that religion is divisive and a human creation.

I think this case is far too micro in scale when the question looks at the concept of religion and science as a whole. Of course you’ll have similar ideas across centuries that trend up and down like everything else does. If humanity just went back to have no idea what religion or science is, when they rebuilt their understanding of the world, science would be entirely the same. All of science. Not a handful of theories. The whole thing. People will make new gods though. The planet is completely different now. The reasons religion was even thought about will no longer be the same. The quote really pushes the stance that religion as a concept and whole is made up, and science is not.

If Ricky Gervais ends up in mastodon I’d want to hear their reasoning.

Depending upon your art style you could get a deck of blank cards and do art on each one.

Just to show you what I mean with some examples

Nope, if I’m wrong and there is a god I plan to kick their dick instead out for all the anguish and suffering that could have been avoided. god cannot be both omnipotent and all loving. Only one or the other.

Also, in the loosely remembered words of Ricky Gervais, “if all recorded history of religion, and of science were suddenly erased from the earth; in a thousand years you’d have all the science back exactly the same, but the religions would be totally different.” Which I find very compelling.
